EDII acceptance rate

<p>Anyone know what it is? I can't find it</p>

<p>No idea what it is, from what they said, it is only a bit more than RD, but about the same as ED1. But also from what I have heard, the ED1 acceptance rate is much more than RD. So I have no idea? I would also love to hear the actual number!!</p>

<p>The Emory in the news part of Emory.edu currently has articles that are monitoring early admission statistics of the top institutions who offer them. The Regular Decision 1 applicant pool had about 709 applicants, with 350 being offered admission, so that’s about half (probably so that Emory can get as much “guaranteed” matriculates as possible) . I’m gonna post the articles below. One thing you’ll notice is that Emory has a small amount of ED applicants compared to peers, but this is because, unlike the peers, we still have a binding early decision admissions process. Just had to say that before there is an uproar in the thread regarding Emory’s poor performance in drawing applicants. I don’t know how Early decision 2 will play out. Depends on the amount of applications. Keep in mind that Emory normally only has a freshmen class of about 1300. With historical yield about 30%, and the admissions rate normally slightly below 30% overall. Emory may admit like 4100-4300 students as normal if there is no significant increase or decrease in applicants vs. last year, when the RD process is over.</p>

<p>If you are applying ED2, good luck :slight_smile: .</p>

<p>Thanks. Using those numbers and the class profile I got a 35.4% rate ed2. 49.3 ed1 and 22% rd. </p>

<p>If rd has a yield of 22%, then the overall yield is 28.5%. </p>

<p>27% overall acceptance rate. </p>

<p>Assuming class size of 1310. </p>

<p>This is probably off by 2-3 percent I bet. </p>

<p>Do those numbers sound right? I don’t think I messed up. </p>

<p>Oxford has a higher accept rate than emory so emory college’s numbers are slightly less. Just slightly though since the college gets way more applications so has a greater effect on the overall rates</p>

<p>Sorry ignore that last paragraph. I forgot I was working with just emory college numbers</p>

<p>Don’t worry about specific numbers. Your numbers are definitely ball park. Emory’s admission rate doesn’t rapidly change from year to year like Vandy for example. Perhaps with exception of the earlier part of the decade (can’t believe I can say that now lol), when applications started to jump. I think Emory had admissions rates well into the 40s percentiles in like 2000.</p>

<p>I had a dream I didn’t get accepted into Emory EDII last night. This application stuff is really getting to me! I’m so nervous. Does anyone know why the deadline was pushed back to the 4th?</p>

<p>They probably want to ensure the maximum amount of applications.</p>

<p>This sounds dumb. How many essays are there? Just the common app one and the 250 word why emory one? Are there any others? It doesn’t seem like much</p>

<p>^Yes, just two.</p>
