they normally accept around 200-300 ed. they admit more people (more people, not a higher rate of people) in rd because of yield and a lot of ppl end up going to other schools

last years ED aceeptance rate was like 40 percent or something

Yea on the website it said they filled 45% of the class from ED which was a little above 500 students.

the incoming class is about 600-700, total admits is more close to 1000

This is late but I’m from Mass

according to barnard first year profile, they accepted 1.220 students, 45 percent of that was Ed and 1 242 applied thru ED and so some quick math makes the acceptance rate around 40

Wait now I’m confused. How many students do they usually admit from ED vs RD??

idk know if my explanation is right or makes sense but thats just what i thought

incoming class isnt total admits. incoming class is how many ppl choose to matriculate to barnard and total admits are how many ppl are accepted. in ed, every person admitted becomes part of the class. in rd, not every person admitted becomes part of the class. so they admit more people than there are spaces in the class. if ed yield is 100%, then it accounts for 45% of the incoming class of around 600, not of the total admits of 1000. so thats around 200-300 ed admits.

also the cds has numbers of ed stats, you can calculate the ed acceptance rate

no dhdh i made the same mistake until i realized that ed applicants dont get other choices so they automatically fill up the class, so barnard doesnt need to admit more ppl to make up for those who choose not to come

last year there were 1221 ed applicants and 292 ed admits (according to the cds) so thats a 23.9% acceptance rate which is still a HUGE boost over rd acceptance rate :slight_smile: !
