<p>I just corrected a few of those dates: wash u- Dec 10, NYU- Dec12 and NE yesterday</p>

4

<p>actually, bsalum, the only thing you are incorrect is NYU’s reply date. It is supposed to be Dec 15. Here is a quote from my nyu albert account: “We expect that all admission decisions will be sent via email on December 15th after 5pm (Eastern Standard Time) for Early Decision I candidates”</p>

5

<p>Duke admitted 815 out of 3180. </p>

6

<p>Brown - ED - 20% - 617 out of 3016
Harvard - SCEA 16.5% - 977 (calculated) out of 5919 </p>

<p>Brown 617 3016 20.46%
Dartmouth 483 1856 26.02%
Duke 815 3180 25.63%
Harvard 977 5919 16.51%
MIT 625 6519 9.59%
Stanford 743 7297 10.18%
Williams 244 593 41.15%</p>

<p>PENN admitted 1,316 early-decision applicants from 5,489 applicants 23.97%</p>

<p>MIT admitted 625 EA applicants from 6519 (9.59%).</p>

13

<p>It sure would be nice to know to what extent the higher admit rates for ED are driven by genuinely better chances as opposed to legacy or athletic admits. Clearly the chances are better, but as much better as the delta in admit rates between ED and Regular would indicate? If you take overall admit rate and assume that 95 percent of those admitted ED will matriculate, the calculated RD admit rates are scary low at these colleges</p>

<p>Columbia didn’t release how many they accepted. But they did say:</p>

<p>“According to Undergraduate Admissions, a total of 3,373 students applied, a modest 2.3 percent increase over last year’s ED applicant pool of 3,298.” <a href=“Columbia Mails Class Of 2019 ED Letters - Bwog”>https://bwog.com/2014/12/11/columbia-mails-class-of-2019-ed-letters/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

15

<p>Princeton saw an early acceptance rate of 19.9%, slightly higher than last year’s rate of 18.5%. The New Jersey Ivy accepted 767 students out of a pool of 3,850.</p>

<p>@michelle2912‌ I would post a full list of your stats by making at “What Are My Chances?” on the appropriate forum. It’s impossible to tell without a more detailed list of your stats, and the people in that forum are better equipped to give you an accurate estimate.</p>

<p>JHU - Of 1,865 students who sought early entry to Hopkins, 539 were accepted Friday. The rest were denied or deferred until regular admission decisions are made in the spring</p>
