<p>Holler if you were accepted/applied/deferred/rejected from Huntsman! </p>
<p>I’m working on the app right now.</p>
<p>deferred (10)</p>
<p>i'm writing my essay this evening - still confused about how personal it has to be. :(</p>
<p>A good friend of mine got into Huntsman ED, and she's from Canada.</p>
<p>mind sharing the stats and ECs?</p>
<p>Well, since she doesn't go to the same school as I do, I don't really know her stats and ECs (plus she's out of town on vacation right now). I wonder if she's actualy a CCer who lurks around on this forum.</p>
<p>I might be wrong, but when I looked on their website, it seemed like there were more international students than US ones. Is that actually true?</p>
<p>Hmmm, is a 750 on your target language SAT II (Chinese) low for the Huntsman pool?</p>

<p>only significant ECs are quizbowl, model congress and model UN, ballroom dancing, tennis, history club, and the usual NHS, NSHS
I had an internship at JHU this summer and just finished a free math course there.</p>
<p>selected language was mandarin, i examined china vs. taiwan, it's a secret, until i submit :-D your scores are crazy, i have to admit. i guess significant ECs are pres. of tabletennis, young democrats, and math honor society</p>
<p>"I might be wrong, but when I looked on their website, it seemed like there were more international students than US ones. Is that actually true?"</p>
<p>no, look here: <a href="http://www.upenn.edu/huntsman/students/demographics.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.upenn.edu/huntsman/students/demographics.html</a></p>
<p>53 have been international students, while 137 have been US ones.</p>
<p>Most represented languages are French, Chinese and Spanish. Do you think that an applicant with Hindi as his language would be more competitive since fewer people speak Hindi?</p>
<p>Oh... Maybe I should rather settle for German instead of French. Seems a lot rarer.</p>
<p>just depends. mandarin is just more widely spoken than a lot of languages, and china's economy is the hottest around right now, so it would make more sense to accept more mandarin candidates. i think it just depends on individual merit</p>
<p>what distinguishes huntsman apps. anyway? the essay? extracurrics?</p>
<p>yup, extra essay. And Huntsman applicants must have completed a year of calculus.</p>
<p>"have" completed? as in...before they submit the app? i don't think so, isn't it before you matriculate?</p>
<p>yeah - I meant matriculate, sorry</p>
<p>jeez, scared the poop outta me. hey anyone wanna read my hunts essay now that its submitted? i think its pretty awesome</p>
