<p>Just Kidding. But I want you all to read this. My best friend just got deferred. Does anybody know the acceptance rate for deferrals? I need to know this ASAP!</p>
<p>Thanks kids.</p>
<p>About 4% </p>
<p>I know! How depressing!</p>
<p>i believe it is like 3-4%....</p>
<p>Well when you consider the rate for RD is about 11%, it is impossible for the admission rate of deferred people to be above that.</p>
<p>The website says that about 80-200 deferrees get accedpted in april. So divide that by 4000 ED applicants, that gives you something along the lines of 2-5%, depending on the year.</p>
<p>One thing that many deferred CCers are forgetting is that there's no way that they weren't near the upper sections of the deferred students.</p>
<p>The percentage of deferred students who get in RD may be low, but <em>someone</em> gets in this way, and if someone does, you all certainly have a great shot.</p>
<p>i don't know why they don't just cut more people early if they will only accept 80-200 deferrals. its not helping people on the lower end of the deferrals to think "...well i was deferred. maybe i still have a chance here, or at other colleges of similar caliber." 135/4140 rejected is stupid. thats just 3000 more apps they have to deal with in feb</p>
