It really could have gone either way with her stats, so if I had to guess what pushed her in it was probably her ECs (esp research at one of the UC’s the summer of her junior year), her essays and her LOR (hard to really know about the LOR since we don’t see them, but she was close with the teachers and counselors who wrote them).
Really excited for her!
Congrats to all who got in and good luck to deferred students…

I got deferred…35/36, 760 SAT Math/Chem; 4.0+ GPA; varsity sports, many leadership ECs and math related awards, but I am taking MultiVariable Calc/Linear Algebra and AP Physics C rather than a third Social Science class (when I called admissions they said this wouldn’t be a negative), but based upon what I’m seeing. I wonder if this was a negative on my app? Any thoughts?
@KWSoCal she wasn’t competing against the pool. Her application would be compared to applying students in her local CA region and school. They admit by region and have only so many X offers for each region.
If she is still interested, she needs to fill out the additional update form.
@epyf64 I don’t think that is it because GT loves advanced math. MANY kids got deferred or rejected with similar stats.
Also depends if OOS or in-state, major and other factors that are not in your control.
My Son got accepted.

Got deferred with a 1420 Chemical Engineering OOS. Feeling confident for reg decision, Had very good first semester grades and started a some new projects. Any idea how many get accepted from being deferred?
Son was accepted for civil engineering! ACT 35, UW 4.0, 800 on Math II and chemistry. Strong ECs and recs. He tells me his essays are strong but I didn’t read them. In state. Very relieved - we were stressed!
It said it is not a conditional offer but cannot be switched to fall semester.
Is there anyone also being admitted by it or anyone knowing sth about it？
I’m still kind Offer confusing. Is there any big difference？Is it a kind of preparatory courses？I applied Architecture, am I still major in Architecture？Does it mean I will take an extra semester before regular fall semester？
^ it’s just early enrollment. You would be a regular student just starting early. Nothing conditional or prelim. Go and take a light load of required courses for your major.
Accepted OOS for CS. SAT: 1580, ACT: 36, Math 2/Chemistry subject tests: 800. As for the discussion on advanced maths, I took Lin Alg, Multivariable, differential equations last year and am taking Partial Differential Equations this year.
Accepted! Applied Physics, might switch to business (I put that as second choice). Look through my profile for my stats, too lazy to copy and paste. TBH I considered GT as a school leaning more towards safety, but I got in, and then I saw that it was 14% acceptance rate and I was pretty shook.
