Brown Class of 2020 Early Decision Discussion

deferred.
how much chance do the deferred people have in getting accepted?

@helpplss Hate to be so blunt, but the chances are low

@artblogger the fact that many of us got deferred shows how stiff the competition was this year. we’re all amazing applicants with great personalities so don’t take a deferral personally. at the end of the day they’re cherry picking the “ideal applicants” in an overqualified ED pool. just because your application was deferred does not mean you’re not worthy of admission. stay positive and work on your other applications for schools that will recognize your talent.

Btw acceptance rate was about 20% per the brown FB page

@collegebobollege 22%

here’s the article: https://news.brown.edu/articles/2015/12/early

This article is relevant again!!!

deferred as well… JUST HAVE TO IMPROVE GRADES WE CAN DO THIS YOU GUYS

Deferred and I have a 3.3 GPA and a 2060 SATs. Just saying, I’m proud of not getting denied with my stats…

PS, my friend with a 3.9uw and 2150 got denied… so I’m even more shocked. Additionally, only 2 people on CC for brown have gotten accepted, this is freaking ridiculous!!

Denied but I just wondered if everyone here is deferred why is the acceptance rate so high this year? Isn’t it usually under 10%? This year it’s 22%! Can’t believe it!

Under 10% is for RD, @bluethewarmest

Also, if you got deferred, I assume like usual the acceptance rate for us will be 8%

So that’s not nothing :slight_smile:

I’m bummed out I didn’t get into Brown’s biggest ED accepted pool lmao

@wifigirl lol same I feel like crap because of that

Accepted!! Can’t wait to see you guys there!

This is going to come off as completely conceited, but I actually don’t know what I could’ve done differently. 35 ACT, 4.0 UW GPA (4.36 W), 7.5/10 essays, extracurriculars, etc. Oh well. I hope the RD treats me better than this one did!

Just gotta look on the bright side, I guess! :^)

Deferred. what are our chances of getting in RD? ugh this is gonna suck waiting.

Yay! Didn’t think it would happen
