Applying ED

Colleges and Universities A-Z Carnegie Mellon University

<p>So here's the lowdown. My rough stats:</p>

<p>Math II: 780
Physics: 730
Lit: 730
SAT: (predicted) 2200
GPA: 4.2 W (few APs offered at my private school)
Calc AB: 5, APUSH: 4</p>

<p>Basically, my only chance on getting is through ED. I'm majoring in Computer Science. However, is it really worth bothering even applying to this school? Do I have a shot? My other option is to apply to JHU early decision, and although I'm not to keen on that school I would probably do it if CMU ED is hopeless for me. So what's the acceptance rate for CMU? Do I have hope at CMU ED? And exactly how hard is the comp sci school to get in to?</p>

<p>The acceptance rate for CMU SCS is a mere 5.8% haha
I am not sure what it is for ED, but hopefully it’s higher because I’m applying there ED as well :slight_smile:
Good luck! </p>

<p>@2015er HOLY COW! One might as well apply to Stanford with a rate like that! Let’s hope ED is higher indeed!</p>
