<p>Yea! Even more competitive… lol. </p>
<p>The key info… Yale accepted 649 students last year from its early applicant pool, yielding a 14.4 percent acceptance rate for the class of 2017. Out of the 4,514 early applications, 2,529 students were deferred and 1,302 were rejected. And for this year… the SCEA pool now includes 4,768 applicants. My D is one of them. Good luck to all…</p>
