<p>Hello Mr. Peterson,
I was wondering if there is any possibility of you giving us stats on how many people applied, how many people got in, etc. I love numbers, and it would help me to relax if I could calculate a probability of myself getting into my dream school. I realize that you'll probably say no, but it can't hurt to ask!
Thanks!</p>

<p>They’ll be posted on the admissions blogs after decisions have come out.</p>
<p>These are rough numbers and not to be taken as coming from MIT but from different announced numbers and extrapolation from last year.</p>
<p>Total applied - 18084
Total EA - 6102
EA admitted - 680
EA deferred - 3731</p>
<p>Extrapolation</p>
<p>Applicants still being considered - 15700
Admits still possible based on last year’s admit totals - 1035</p>
<p>^^^^make sure that you factor in the 70.6% EA yield for MIT, which could very well change due to the new Princeton and Harvard SCEA plans.</p>

<p>That is not the answer you want, but it’s the answer I’m going to give you ;)</p>
<p>Thanks MITChris! Even though that isn’t exactly what I wanted, it actually makes me much less stressed about the admissions process.</p>
