<p>[ *] Why I think I was accepted/rejected/waitlisted: Extracurricular activities, essays and recommendations</p>

<p>knight, id say there is little doubt that your leadership/service made you an appealing candidate, regardless of stats</p>

<p>An admissions counselor told me that a "VAST MAJORITY" of EA applicants were deferred, so don't be overly worried by a deferral. Binghamton really wants to see what the "overall applicant pool" looks like before they start accepting a large number of EA candidates. Good luck to everyone! :)</p>
