<p>Does anyone have any thoughts about the distribution of these extra applications or maybe just early decision applications in general?</p>

<p>Do you think that any college has a disproportional representation in the ED application process? That is to say, do more students apply Early Decision to the College of Engineering as a percentage when compared to other schools?</p>

<p>From my school in particular, Engineering has more this year than ever before (3 or 4). I’m the only one applying to CAS, 2 for CALS, and 1 ILR…</p>

<p>^Interesting.</p>

<p>Also, I was just using College of Engineering vs. others ones as an example.
I applied to CALS.</p>

<p>I hope CAS doesnt have as high of an increase in applications as engineering apparently does!</p>
