<p>Does CMU look at freshman gpa?
What is the ED acceptance rate?
And generally, do you apply to a university or the specific institutes within that University (e.g. CIT for Carnegie)?</p>
<p>nope.
I’m not sure but you can find out ED rate on their website.
You apply to specific institutes like CIT. You can apply to more than one institute.</p>
<p>what if HS doesnt rank students?</p>
<p>well i don’t think rank matters as much as the grades received in courses. Do they rank by deciles at least?</p>
<p>My HS didn’t rank, so it’s not a problem. They will look at your grades and what kind classes you are taking (how difficult). You must apply to the school you are interested in, but you can choose more than one. </p>
<p>I am not sure about Freshman grades, but I think they will look at them, otherwise they will only have 2 years to look at (soph, jr.). If there is a problem with your freshman grades, ask your counselor to address it in his or her letter. You can address it also, if you feel the need…</p>
