<p>None of that is known. What is however known is that you are engaging in idle speculation. Pure and unadulterated speculation. Unless Shaw and Fitz emailed you the current total of applications and their expected final yield.</p>

<p>Notre Dame admits 1,960 Early Action Applicants to the Class of 2018 from a record 6,551 Early Action applicants</p>

<p>Published: December 20, 2013</p>

<p>The University of Notre Dame admitted 1,960 Early Action applicants who attended 1,240 different high schools in 46 states and 30 countries.</p>

<p>The students were selected from a record number of 6,551 Early Action applicants. In addition, another 900 were deferred to the Regular Action admission process where they will receive another full evaluation for admission in March.</p>

<p>The academic and personal profile of the 2014 applicant pool was the highest achieved by a Notre Dame early admission admit cohort.</p>

<p>Don Bishop, Associate Vice President of Undergraduate Enrollment, noted, “This year while applications for Early Action increased by 7%, we also saw another elevation in the overall quality and diversity of the entire applicant pool. The number of applicants with academic credentials and a record of service and leadership that have traditionally gained admission to Notre Dame was up 13%. We are exceptionally impressed with the students who aspire to join the Notre Dame family.”</p>

<p>The median profile of the admitted students place them among the top 1% of the nation in their high school class performance and/or national test scores. However, more impressive was their leadership and service accomplishments. Notre Dame practices a holistic admission process that views students for their exceptional academic and intellectual promise and creativity as well as their leadership and entrepreneurial records and their heart and sense of service to others.</p>

<p>“We look forward to talking with these students about their goals in life and how Notre Dame can show them a bigger world and an intellectual experience greater than even they can imagine. We also are excited over the next three months to read the Regular Action applicants and introduce them to those who plan to join them in the fall of 2014,” stated Bishop.</p>

<p>Bates College admitted 45% of 405 ED1 applicants (183 admits). ED1 apps were down 5% from 2012, but ED1 apps in 2012 had been up 35% from 2011.

<p>Early Action 2014 Statistics (Unofficial)
Posted: 21 Jan 2014 08:59 AM PST</p>

<p>Here are some numbers about the early action process. These numbers are up to date as of 1/20/2014. If you are a reporter reading this, please be sure to get in touch with the Media Relations team in the Office of University Communications for all of your reporterly needs. :)</p>

<p>Early Action Applications
Total number of Early Action applications: 14,819
Total number of VA apps: 4,027
Total number of OOS apps: 10,792
We use completed application numbers in our statistics. There are schools that include incomplete applications in their stats.</p>

<p>Early Action Offers
Overall offers: 4,590
Total VA offers: 2,057 (51.1% offer rate)
Total OOS offers: 2,533 (23.5% offer rate)
Enrollment goal: 3,570 (between EA and RD)
*Schools admit more students than the enrollment goal with yield in mind.Yield is how many students accept an offer of admission. Check out yield from past years, broken down by residency (these numbers are for the entire applicant pool, not just early action). </p>

<p>Early Action Defers
Overall defers: 3,771
Total VA defers: 920
Total OOS defers: 2,851
Some applicants will withdraw, so these numbers will go down.</p>

<p>Early Action Testing/Rank
Middle 50% SAT score (offers only): 2020-2260
Middle 50% ACT composite (offers only): 31-34
We use scores from each section in our review, but the reports on averages generate totals.</p>

<p>95% of admitted students were in the top 10% of their high school class
This number only reflects those who attend schools that report rank.</p>

<p>Are any statistics available for the number of applications colleges have received? Kenyon and Tufts have announced their numbers. Any other schools?</p>

<p>For the summary table, I believe Georgetown belongs in the Single Choice (or Restrictive/Non-Binding) Early Action category, with Harvard, etc. (“Students applying under the Early Action program may not apply to any binding Early Decision programs since they then would not be free to choose Georgetown if admitted. Students are welcome to apply to other Early Action programs or other Regular Decision programs while at the same time applying to Georgetown’s Early Action program.”)</p>

<p>UNC Chapel Hill Early Action applications up 12%; overall applications up just over 1%</p>

<p>Acceptance rate for early action applicants was 36%. Based on past yields (about 48% in 2013), the acceptance rate for regular decision applicants is likely to be quite low–likely less than 20%. </p>

<p>Selections from article:</p>

<p>From larger applicant pool, Carolina offers first-deadline admission to 6,036 </p>

<p>More than 6,000 candidates from a record first-deadline pool of 16,987 have been offered admission to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s 2014 first-year class. The pool was 12 percent larger than last year, marking the second year in a row that Carolina has set a record for the number of first-deadline applicants.</p>

<p>A total of 31,209 students (first and second deadline) have applied for first-year admission, marking the ninth consecutive record number of first-year applications at UNC-Chapel Hill. Decisions for second-deadline applicants will be released by the end of March. The University expects 3,990 new first-year students to enroll in August.</p>

<p>Eighty-five percent of all admitted students who reported a rank are ranked in the top 10 percent of their class. The average SAT score rose 18 points, from 2026 to 2044. The average ACT score, 31, did not change.</p>

<p>Does anyone have numbers for Middlebury? I wonder what their numbers are like for this year’s ED.</p>

<p>This is a good summary of ED/EA numbers for many schools:

<p>Could we begin an RD acceptance rate thread?</p>

<p>Here are the numbers for a few schools:
U’Chicago- 8.3%
Pomona- 12.16%
Harvey Mudd- 13%</p>

<p>It is probably time to start a new thread. And, when possible, it is best to include a link to the source of the information and post numbers in addition to percentage. This allows to separate the speculative hearsay (as the Chicago number probably is) from the more credible sources. </p>

<p>To update the chart - at a tour And info session I was at yesterday at William and Mary, the admissions officer stated they took 500 out of 1200 ED applicants this past year and that many were Virginia residents. He said that was 500 of the 1500 spaces for the entire entering Freshman class.</p>

<p>Here are the stats from Harvard
<a href=“Harvard Makes Admissions Offers to 5.9 Percent of Applicants to the Class of 2018 | News | The Harvard Crimson”>http://www.thecrimson.com/article/2014/3/27/regular-admissions-class-2018/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>@wecram‌ </p>

<p>Wow… Although many applicants are definitely stronger in the early pool, it seems like chances are much better if you were to apply SCEA. Does anybody else think so? I think 3% vs 21% is quite a big schism.</p>

<p>@newdle it’s got me thinking the same thing. Maybe I should use my EA there instead of Stanford…</p>

<p>Oops</p>
