Advice from 2014 SCEA and 2015 SCEA Admitted Students, anyone from Utah?

<p>Hey so I was a 2014 Yale SCEA acceptee, currently Harvard 2014. Congrats to all who got accepted for 2015!!</p>

<p>I'm from Utah and I'm trying to figure out if anyone was accepted SCEA 2015 from Utah, cuz some of my friends were all deferred and I'm just kinda curious if anyone got in. So to the admitted students can you check if there's anyone from Utah mentioned on the admitted students website. </p>

<p>To those deferred, a lot of my friends here at Harvard were deferred / rejected from Yale SCEA, but were accepted RD to HYPSM. So honestly it is NOT over if you got deferred SCEA. It is such a competitive pool and every college has different selection criteria and circumstances. Just do your best to do what you enjoy research, writing, sports, etc. Just pursue your passions through competitions, conferences, or however you like to do so!</p>

<p>Good luck with your year!</p>

<p>Also to anyone in the class of 2015 if you have any questions please feel free to ask me. I'd be glad to help.</p>

<p>Yale accepted one applicant from Utah in this last SCEA cycle. That is notable, however, for a Mountain state. Yale accepted no North or South Dakotans, no Nevadans, and nobody from Wyoming.</p>

<p>From other Mountain/West states, Yale accepted 6 Hawaiians, 82 Californians, 12 Washingtonians, 6 Oregonians, 1 Alaskan, 2 Idahoans, 2 Montanans, 3 Coloradans, and 3 Arizonans.</p>

<p>^Btw, congrats on being the Alaskan acceptance! :)</p>

<p>Thanks HADC 10 and congrats :slight_smile: What city in Utah is the accepted person from?</p>

<p>Hey acui, why Harvard? :slight_smile: Just wondering because that is probably the only place that might take me from Yale (accepted EA)</p>

<p>Well to be honest, it was a tough choice, like I visited both school’s in April along with Stanford, Princeton, and UPENN (M&T). And like you said it came down to Yale vs Harvard. </p>

<p>Honestly I loved Yale. It was easily my top choice going into the application process and after visiting. Old Campus in the Spring was amazing!! And I was almost set on going to Yale, the architecture, the social scene, and the amazing academics.</p>

<p>However, opportunity wise, the two were nearly comparable. A couple of things changed my mind to Harvard, though not to say that it is right for everyone. </p>

<p>1.) I’m studying engineering and I wanted to cross-register at MIT for some engineering classes while still keeping the liberal arts education of Harvard. (Yale Engineering is great too, and they have put a lot of resources into expanding it).</p>

<p>2.) I called Yale and tried to get some questions answered about a specific program, but the advisor that I spoke with wasn’t all that friendly or helpful. When I called Harvard about their similar program, the advisor was extremely friendly and answered all of my questions. While I know that this doesn’t reflect all the advising, I suppose this left me with a more positive impression of Harvard.</p>

<p>So I suppose in the end it was a combination of little factors through the whole process. They are both amazing schools, and you couldn’t go wrong with either one. </p>

<p>I want to emphasize that it is a very personal choice and regardless of everyone else’s opinions you need to decide for yourself. And make sure to visit them all during Pre-Frosh!</p>

<p>5 students from arizona actually, I think. And I think I know who HADC10 is now :)</p>

<p>Cheers acui, appreciated. Will def try to visit wherever I get in.</p>

<p>Sure no problem!! If you have any questions feel free to PM me. Hahah well I guess this Utah person is still a mystery…</p>

<p>I’m new to this website…but I was wondering if anyone could tell me how many people were accepted from Louisiana during SCEA? Thanks:)</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I know, right? Blue Marble makes stalking CCers’ real identities WAY too easy. :D</p>

<p>Blue Marble shows 2 students from Louisiana. :)</p>

<p>…I don’t know if that is a good thing or a bad thing…because they accepted only eight students from Louisiana last year…Thanks though :)</p>

<p>How many Georgia students?</p>

<p>^
8 students.</p>

<p>Alright thanks.</p>

<p>Sorry if this is becoming redundant but how many from Illinois?</p>

<p>Like Golf308 said, sorry if this is becoming redundant; however, how many from Texas if someone is willing to check please?</p>
