EA/ED slaughter house

Applying to College
1

<p>Soo... the public school I attend is consistently ranked as one of the top public schools in the nation and the level of competition here is actually quite ridiculous so everybody was expecting the turnout rate for acceptances at the top tier would be phenomenal. Buttt... we got slaughtered EA/ED... what mean I? I mean:
5 Stanford -> 1 deferred
1 Penn -> deferred
1 Brown -> deferred
1 MIT -> deferred
1 CalTech -> rejected
3 Yale-> 1 accepted & 2 deferred
And there's probably a number of others who got rejected/deferred EA/ED that the whole nosy school (including me) does not know about. It makes me want to cry, as well as wonder if the kids who are getting in are truly more deserving than the academic/well-rounded gods at my school</p>

<p>So out of curiosity... how did your school do in the EA/ED round? How many people got into the top tier? How many got deffered? How many got rejected? How many even applied?</p>

2

<p>so what happened to the other 4 at stanford?</p>

<p>my school was similar. legacies and athletes were the only exceptions.</p>

3

<p>1 stanford -> deferred (me)
1 yale -> deferred
1 MIT -> deferred (valedictoria)
2 Georgetown -> 1 deferred, idk about other one</p>

4

<p>10 Stanford --> 1 Accepted [URM]; 3 Deferred; 6 Rejected. </p>

<p>I call that a REALLY bad year.</p>

5

<p>it wouldn't be a slaughter house if the other 4 got in, now would it? They got rejected (incl. valedictorian) <em>sobs</em></p>

6

<p>Yale 1 Accept 1 Defer 1 Defer/Reject (not sure)
Stanford 1 Accept 1 Defer 1 Reject
Georgetown 1 Defer I know of, might be more
Wash U 1 Accept 2 Defer
NU 1 Accept
Brown 1 Defer
I'd say i was a pretty good year for our school this year, this is probably one of the stronger classes we've had.</p>

7

<p>We have four into Stanford, five deferred, and seven rejected.</p>

<p>Two into Yale, two deferred.</p>

<p>I don't know the rest, but a few into Columbia and Brown.</p>

8

<p>5 Stanford = 4 rejected, 1 deferred.</p>

<p>Yep. All, if not most, were class valedictorians.</p>

9

<p>My school did pretty well. I know of at least 3 people who got into Yale, and 7 out of 11 who applied to UChicago got in.</p>

<p>Mine's a really competitive selective public school, though, and about 45-50% of our seniors get into at least one Ivy, so I'm not the norm.</p>

10

<p>5 Stanford--> 4 rejected, 1 accepted
1 Chicago--> deferred (me)
2 Penn--> 1 deferred, 1 accepted</p>

11

<p>Like 10 accepted to Penn so far, one Stanford, one Yale, one chicago. Only R/D I know is my neighbor getting deferred from MIT.</p>

12

<p>We got slaughtered more:</p>

<p>9 Yale -> all defer
5 MIT -> all defer
1 Stanford (URM) - > admit
1 Duke -> admit
1 Columbia -> defer
1 Chicago -> defer
1 WashU -> accept
1 Hopkins -> accept</p>

<p>That is all I know of for now. There's probably more people that got ownd though.</p>

13

<p>We actually did pretty well. We're a fine public school, though we have hardly any AP options, but we're near a college consortium so lots of students take classes at a local top-tier liberal arts college.</p>

<p>Yale: 2 accepted (1 URM); 3 deferred; 1 rejected (valedictorian? based on unweighted GPA)
Brown: 1 accepted (URM)
Stanford: 1 deferred
Middlebury: 3 accepted (1 URM [me], 1 legacy)
Carleton: 1 accepted
Wesleyan: 2 accepted (1 legacy)
Swarthmore: 1 deferred
Oberlin: 1 accepted
Johns Hopkins: 1 accepted
Chicago: 1 deferred
Georgia Tech: 1 accepted</p>

<p>That's all I know of so far.</p>

14

<p>Columbia: 1 accepted
Williams: 2 deferred
MIT: 1 deferred, 2 rejected
Duke: 1 accepted
Yale: 2 deferred</p>

<p>Tough year</p>

15

<p>1 Stanford - Rejected
not too surprised though lol. class of <20 kids, not a prep school.</p>

16

<p>9 Yale; 7 accepted, 2 deferred
1 Dartmouth; deferred
3 Stanford; 1 deferred, 2 rejected
4 Columbia; 2 accepted, 2 deferred
4 Penn; 2 accepted, 2 deferred
3 Brown; 1 accepted, 2 deferred</p>

17

<p>there were NOT that many kids who applied early to schools outside of the normal public colleges in MD.</p>

<p>2 JHU - 1 accepted, 1 deferred.
1 Cornell - rejected.</p>

<p>we'll see about other schools come RD. i'm not expecting anything amazing though... most of my class has UMD - College Park as their dream school.</p>
