<p>Overall, it’s 20.5%. 15.7% for males, 35.3% for females.</p>

<p>And obviously it’s higher for early decision and lower for regular decision</p>

<p>“15.7% for males, 35.3% for females.”
How do you know that?</p>

<p>Colene, that’s based on the stats at this link:

<p>Colene, according to the data posted earlier, 1787 students were accepted out of 8696 total applicants, resulting in an overall acceptance rate of 20.5%. Of the applicants, (601 were males and 1047 of them (15.7%) were accepted, while 2095 were women and 740 (35.3%) were accepted. However, whether the admissions office might not hold up these statistics year to year.</p>

<p>The overall acceptance rate for the Class of 2016 is 16.2%. So it’s getting tougher I guess.</p>

<p>now sheroze, where do you get that from?</p>

<p>Ah, overall. I thought you meant for engineering specifically. Misread on my part.</p>

<p>Colene - not sure if your post was for me, but if you look at the link, it has a full report - Cornell as a whole, then by each school within Cornell.</p>
