<p>1.) For any of the Ivy Leagues plus Duke, Stanford, and JHU, are there any high EARLY DECISION acceptance rates to specific colleges (i.e Arts and Sciences, Engineering) of the universities???</p>
<p>-For example, acceptance rate for WOMEN at the College of Engineering at Cornell is about 54%. I would imagine that ED rate for the Engineering college, for women, it is perhaps near 70%. Simply because of the rarity of women in the engineering field., the rate is so high and thus easy to get in.</p>
<p>(I would like to say that I am a male so engineering doesn't go to my benefit)</p>
<p>My goal is to do pre-med and I want to know particularly which of those universities I have listed above have high ED Rates to certain colleges such as Engineering or Arts and Sciences.</p>
<p>First, I would like to say that I am a male, asian indian from NJ. For a quick glance at my academic stats, I have an SAT I of 1480 and SAT IIS of Math IIC - 800, IC- 760, Bio- 790, Physics- 790, Latin- 750, Writing- 640 and I am finishing with 8 AP classes - BIO, Chem, Phys B, Statistics, BC Calc, AB Calc, Latin: Vergil, and Eng Lang. In addition, I have great extra-curriculars which I do not feel like expounding and also solid grades with a solid average of about an 88 at a top distinguished boarding high school at Deerfield Academy. At my school, around 33% of the graduating classes get accepted into ivy leagues although most are athletes, legacies, and URMS. However, my average is on target for some of the top universities.</p>
<p>Currently, although I had been accepted to several great colleges including JHU, Vanderbilt, Michigan, Bowdoin, and others, my luck did not fare out at Cornell, a school I truly want to attend beyond its academic caliber and name. However, I did not apply early decision, which could have been for my benefit.</p>
<p>Currently, I am taking a year off/abroad. I had decided early during the summer before senior year that I would take a year off to go do research work and community service at a medical college in India. And thus, I probably will give my shot at applying Early decision this fall to one of the best colleges in addition to a few more regular decision colleges. I had thought of applying ED to Cornell which has the highest ED rate for ivies, but perhaps you guys can provide me better and useful feedback.</p>
<p>Once again, I really appreciate the help you provide in these forums. I know I have asked very specific, pinpointing questions about ED, but I am really hoping that I can reach my goals. Also, just reading about the schools and about other people gives me an impression of where I stand and where I should aim for.</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
