<p>I’ve been looking at the decisions threads, and from what I’ve seen (and heard from my friends, who were at M&TSI and knew a lot of people applying early to M&T) practically NO ONE has gotten into M&T. It seems a looot less than previous years; does anyone know of people who got in, or can anyone account for the low numbers (even by M&T standards)?</p>
<p>maybe they're just not on this board. are you sure no one on this board got in?</p>
<p>joyx905 is listed as MT.........I'd say the folks are just not on CC.</p>
<p>That still makes just one person.. add that to two others I've heard (from M&TSI- I thought more people would get in from there at least) and that makes three people in the country I've heard of getting in..</p>
<p>yea thats three you knwo if in the country...and maybe 50 total get in for the entire world...think about that...</p>
<p>Someone at Penn told me that people who apply to those special programs (like M&T, huntsman) are almost always deferred. since they're so competitive, they want to see all potential candidates before accepting them. not to mention that ED applicants went up 21%...so im assuming they're deferring so much because they want to see what kind of people will apply for RD (since their popularity has gone up quite a bit thanks to rankings...)</p>
<p>damn =(</p>
<p>I Got Innnn!!!!!</p>
<p>I can't imagine a program as selective as that at Penn taking RD applicants very seriously.</p>
<p>How many do you suppose they take ED? 20... 30? If the deferral rate is so high, maybe they only took 3 so there are still 52 spots left!! =P</p>
<p>or um they just aren't on CC? i know of another person that got into M&T...</p>
<p>ummmm...yeah I doubt all of Penn applicants are cc'ers. I have to agree with joy:)</p>

or um I was joking. But anyway, how many do you suppose suppose they take ED?</p>
<p>I had applied to M&T but I had specified that I wanted them to consider me for SEAS in the ED round too, so I was rejected from M&T but accepted in SEAS!! :D</p>
<p>Hey...im an M&T freshman. I applied RD. M&T enrolled 62 my year (a lot!) so I'm guessing they just want to keep the numbers down.</p>
<p>62! wow. thats a lot. How many of them were int'ls? Are M&Ters a lot more qualified than other applicants?</p>
<p>i dunno exactly how many internationals, but there definately are a ton of indians and asians (intl and not). As for qualifications, we're not necessarily better qualified (a lot of kids here were like the "perfect well-rounded person") but I feel that we all have a sense of what we want to do with our lives and how to accomplish it.</p>
<p>indians LOL. you're talking to one aspiring M&T indian here ;)</p>
<p>I talked with Ms. Engle at M&T. Most M&T applicants get deferred. It's nothing new or special.</p>
