He has an academic profile that is comparable with admitted students, which is probably true of about half the applicants. That would mean about a 15% chance, twice the overall rate. Though being male may lower that a bit.

When there are thousands of 1550+/800/800/4.0 applicants, it’s hard to predict what exactly the admissions committee is looking for.

Thank you very much for the inputs.
Also, we are OOS, so how much does it cost for oos and does CMU offer any scholarships for oos?
Thanks again

Carnegie Mellon is a private university. As such, whether one is in-state or out-of-state is not significant for tuition costs.

The cost is the same astronomical number for in-state and out-of-state. I remember we were shocked when total cost of attendance broke the $10k barrier my Senior year. I think it’s over $70k now. I know they just announced yet another double-inflation-rate-increase. (The value proposition outside of CS and Engineering is disappearing).

Financial aid also is not dependent on state residence.
