ED arts and sciences

<p>Is the acceptance rate for A&S at Cornell posted anywhere online?..i think its posted for Engineering</p>

<p>CAS was approximately 16% or 17% this year I think, and that includes ED which was 41% (for the whole university) for 1/3 of the incoming class.</p>

<p>I know I've asked about this before, but how could the college's acceptance rate possibly have gone down to 16 or 17%? In the admissions statistics thread it says that acceptance rate for class of 2008 was 25.5%. Sparticus, I'm not accusing you of being wrong or anything, but where did you get that the admit rate was that low?</p>

<p>I'm sorry jmarsh2006, but you should've been keeping track of the threads from a while ago. Cornell's CAS apps rose by 29% for Class of 2009 regular decision. That means about 12K? applicants applied to Cornell. Adam is right. It's about 19% CAS acceptance rate.</p>

<p>ya more applicants (esp. because of the common app) means more less qualified applicants</p>

<p>oh, well I guess I can find some solace in the fact that the applicants are less qualified now, sorry everyone for the misuderstanding...</p>

<p>yes, go find some solace ;) Don't worry, if cornell is the school for you, you'll get in!</p>
