Admission rates...

Applying to College

<p>K i'm tired of all the different admission rates coming out. I'm trying to find the ED admission rate for Columbia College ( not FUFU). I am also trying to find the EA admit rate for Uchicago for the most recent year. I also think I need RICE ID... Different percentages keep coming out... if you can... the admit rate for these schools would be nice too...</p>

UC San Diego
UC Davis
Georgetown

<p>Rice no longer has Interim Decision.</p>

<p>Northwestern's RD admit rate was around 15%, their ED rate was around 40%, i wish i still had the link where i got this information, i'll look for it.</p>

<p>for all the ivies/MIT/stanford, one only need go to:</p>

<p><a href="http://hernandezcollegeconsulting.com/resources/early2007statistics.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://hernandezcollegeconsulting.com/resources/early2007statistics.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>and scroll to the bottom of the page. </p>

<p>the wonders of google, eh no?</p>

<p>The usnews site <a href="http://www.usnews.com%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.usnews.com&lt;/a> pick Education etc. has this data if you sign up for a Premium subscription. The latest year is not there yet though so you might want to wait a month...or find a copy of their magazine when it comes out.</p>

<p>yay google!</p>

<p>Chicago is a little confusing with the statistics it reports, somewhat understating its RD admit rate. I'm not going to go back and find the posts where I went through the numbers and figured it out, but in round numbers the EA admit rate is 40% and the RD admit rate is about 31% (including deferred EAs).</p>

<p>Chicago's rate may change next year as they will be accepting the Common App. A great college and a unique place.</p>

UCLA 23.3
UCSD 41.1
UCD 58.2</p>

<p>ctParent, are you talking about this coming year? Chicago's not accepting the common app for the college class of 2012</p>

11

<p>CNI...you are correct. My mistake. I do think their numbers may change a bit when they do switch but one article I saw suggested they will be keeping much of their Uncommon App elements in their supplement so it still will not be that easy to fire off an application to them.</p>

12

<p>don't be lazy, admission rates are not difficult to find. Just go on their website. If you don't even have the drive to look up some numbers on google, I don't see how you're going to get in.</p>

13

<p>cornell's 2007 admit rate was 20.5%</p>

14

<p>yeah but that's very misleading. you need to factor in all their different schools, like agriculture and what not.</p>

15

<p>thanks guys. I was looking primarily at Columbia and Chicago Early Admit rates. For Columbia College ED, how many people were accepted out of how many applicants? I'm not concerned with SEAS.</p>

16

<p>I know this is random, but is Duke harder to get into than Cornell?</p>

17

<p>For RD, I think so, but I am not positive.</p>

<p>It was when I applied at least, if I recall correctly</p>

18

<p>again, depends on which school. Cornell's engineering and CAS are probably as difficult, but the other schools like hotel and agriculture (statistically i think) are easier. i do also think the latter two colleges for instnce are self-selective in their applicant pools, so again it differs like that. its very hard to compare cornell like that to a place like say, duke.</p>
