@lmpp @dancingpotato3 I am from NJ! :slight_smile:

sitting here watching all my friends get into college is killing me I don’t know how to wait until Thursday I need to know!!!

Hippp @lmpp

Facts @lmpp … Everyone ik is already posting about where they are going and I’m impatiently waiting for Emory. I wouldn’t be this nervous if Emory wasn’t a reach college for me.

Does anyone know the ED acceptance rate? Or if there was an increase/decrease in ED apps this year?

when I went to the info session in June they said that one year they got roughly 1500 ED1 applications and they accepted 475 of them, waitlisted 10, and straight up denied the rest. 30% seems like an okay amount for me tbh

Ahh got it. I hope we all get in!

@time123 @Intelligent08 hell yeah lets meet up if we get in!

@collegeisme12 I don’t think ED1 has as low of an acceptance rate as @dancingpotato3 stated. According to stats released in 2013 they accepted 52% of ED1 applicants and 17% of ED2 applicants. But this was back when they had an acceptance rate of 27% (now 24-25%) and the GPA average was a bit lower. I don’t expect it to still be this high but I would expect it to still be above 45% for ED1.

A little less than 30% for last year and this is due to a spike in ED applications.

@ljberkow Is there a possibility that we will be differed? When I talked to my admissions counselor, he said that they try to just accept or deny.
