Applying female & ED applicant = + at Tepper?

<p>If I apply ED to Tepper, along with the fact that Im a female.. with that help significantly? Cause I know that there are a lot more males than females, and .. yeah.. hopeful thinking? :(</p>

<p>Unfortunately... no.... it will not affect anything for Tepper.</p>

<p>It doesn't even help you much at engineering either anymore since they've started balancing that out now. The only school it HELPS at is SCS and that is only marginally. If you haven't shown a strong math background, they can still reject you but if you are borderline and a female then SCS might take you over another guy.</p>

<p>However, applying ED will definitely help to any CMU school.</p>

<p>they wont say that it helps, but I feel that being a female def helped.....all of my male friends that got in had much higher SATs than me so keep the faith!</p>

<p>Yes, but you got into Umich Ross. I'm sure you had something else great.
Doubt you got lucky twice :) (Since Ross doesn't care about sex).</p>

<p>I know a few girls who were applying to CMU ED and banking there chances on being female.... the two I know that put all there eggs in that sex basket ended up rejected... (one was applying to Design, other to Engineering...) so.... my only advice is its going to take more than just you being a girl, but I think as AtCA said, it may help with a borderline type of decision, so gl! :)</p>

<p>tepper has more females than males iirc or at least close to 50/50</p>

<p>Ok I was a recruited athlete too and my grades were really high at a prestigious HS with great extra curriculars (president of the debate team, state qualifier in sports, other leadership positions), but face it the SAT is really important and my score wasnt that hot....Tepper and Ross were the two best business schools I applied to and I got into both (remember business is a mostly male dominated field usually wherever you go) however I did get rejected by my number one choice and other liberal art schools that I wanted to get into (most of which have more females than males)....after all said you dont want to bank completly on the fact that your female, but if there is only one part of the application that is a little weak (esp if its the standarized test part) I think it may help you a little (50 points maybe if everything else is great)......by the way AcceptedtoCollege who are you, you were ply in my intro to business class first semester</p>

<p>I would hope it helps. I'm applying to SCS with a friggin 660 on my SAT II Math IIC. </p>

<p>CMU is 60/40 male/female ratio so even if the committee is trying to be sex-blind I'm sure a female business applicant just comes across as more interesting than a male one (when it comes down to gender and not taking into consideration anything else).</p>
