<p>Hi,</p>
<p>Does anyone here knows the acceptance rate for CAS vs SEAS in ED versus RD.</p>
<p>It was mentioned that for 2015 Columbia accepted 19.57% in ED round 632 out of 3229 and the overall (RD plus ED) accepted 2419 out of 34,929 which comes to 6.93%</p>
<p>I couldn't find anywhere break up of these numbers between CAS & SEAS. If anyone has breakup of these numbers between CAS & SEAS please share.</p>
<p>Thank you</p>
<p>Um. For CC (“CAS” is called Columbia College here), it’s 6.4% last year. For SEAS, it’s 9.9%.</p>
<p>You can find information here.
[Columbia</a> College admit rate drops to 6.4 percent](<a href=“http://www.columbiaspectator.com/2011/03/30/cc-admit-rate-drops-64-percent]Columbia”>http://www.columbiaspectator.com/2011/03/30/cc-admit-rate-drops-64-percent)</p>
<p>Thank you zhouzichuan.</p>
<p>Do you have these stats for ED round? I looked around in Columbia web site, couldn’t find any. I am interested in Applied Mathematics/Applied Physics major. So I could kind of apply to either CC or SEAS, so trying to figure out which one might be better.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>They have very different curriculums, and you can’t easily switch between the two. I suggest figuring out which curriculum better matches your wishes and applying to that one, acceptance rates be damned.</p>
<p>^ I agree. They aren’t the same school and they have very different requirements. Choosing purely by acceptance rate is a horrible way to decide where you want to spend 4 years of your life.</p>
