Are the ED applications reviewed with a tougher standard?

<p>I was deferred from ED, and will be put in to the regular decision pool. :\ Anyway, are the ED apps reviewed with a higher standard? I believe they accept around 100 for ED, and was wondering if the standard is relative amongst other applicants.</p>

<p>According to the admission office they accept 40 ed applicants out of 100.</p>

<p>Ah that's right, I completely mistook the numbers. The speaker at the open house said 100 ED applicants.. woops!</p>

<p>Haha, whatever their criteria good luck come regular decision. What major did you apply for?</p>

<p>I applied for mechanical engineering, really hoping to get in! Were you accepted?</p>
