Dual-Degree Rejection

<p>If one gets rejected from a dual degree, what are the chances that one will get into their second choice? I haven't seen any case where one gets rejected from a dual program then into their second choice, but you never know. Also, how would the admissions process go for these applicants? Do they have to go through two parts, such as reviewing for the school they applied to (the four schools), then if they get accepted, they are in the pool for the dual degree, because otherwise it wouldn't be practical to review someone who didn't get accepted into one of the four schools because it would sorta be wasting time? Idk comment please :3</p>

<p>Probably very small. I have sometimes heard of students being rejected from a very selective major such as engineering and being admitted to general studies or something like that but it is not a common case.</p>

<p>chances don’t get affected. dual and single is separate, so it cannot get affected by the rejection from the dual degree admisssions.</p>

<p>Koharvard is right. If you get rejected from a dual-degree, your app goes straight into the pile for your “back up” school of study.</p>

<p>And if you look on the ED threads from last year and the year before (2015, 2014), a good number of CC’ers were accepted into their single choice option.</p>

<p>Can someone get deferred from their dual-degree option?</p>

<p>@laodicean: I think so. I remember seeing on the CC thread for last year’s ED results that a few kids got deferred from the dual-degree option they chose.</p>

<p>if you’re deferred from dual ED, do you get considered for single ED?
or is it only if you’re rejected?</p>

<p>You will only be considered for single ED if you are rejected from Dual ED AND signed the line on the Penn supplement that you would like to be considered for single ED.</p>
