<p>The brochure we received that had a 25% admit rate was associated with the Penn School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. The brochure had no refernce to Huntsman, Jerome, etc. It was clear that the statistics were applicable to those who applied to the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences.</p>
<p>…so to me it seems like if you apply to SEAS instead of a specialized program that you have a ‘fairly’ good shot it - if you consider 25% a good shot. Nevertheless, certainly a better shot than if apply to CAS or Wharton. </p>
<p>I noticed something similar on Duke’s website. The admit rate for the school of engineering is higher than the ‘college at large’. Infact, the early decision admit rate to engineering was almost 40%. </p>
<p>What’s up? Are kids losing interest in the field of engineering???</p>
