<p>Number of early decision applications received: 2,679
Number admitted under early decision plan: 1,160</p>
<p>Is it supposed to be 3,679? This ^ means they accepted 43% whereas with the 3,679, it is 31%</p>
<p>No… on the NYU website they said they had a 5% in crease with like 3,160 this year or something. So those numbers may be wrong… but they had about 2,900 last year.</p>
<p>damn and i still wasnt accepted! : ]</p>
<p>ED’ers have a better chance of getting in than RD’ers, but by no means is it easy in either case.</p>
<p>I don’t doubt that EDers have a better chance, but Gallatin’s dean said otherwise during this fall’s open house…</p>
<p>they say that u do but i think its a gimmic. The percentage is still the same unless the make the standards higher for RDers but idk.</p>
<p>There are two reasons why it’s ‘easier’ to get in ED, whereas getting accepted RD.</p>
<p>1) In ED, they don’t have a “capoff” number where they can only admit a certain amount of applicants. I got this directly from the site. In RD, they only have a limited amount of spaces which they MUST follow.</p>
<p>2) ED obviously shows your passion for the university, and they want to see that.</p>
