Mit Phd vs Phd CEP which is easier to get into?

<p>Yo,
Anyone know whether its easier getting into MIT into the Phd program or the Phd/CEP program in chemical engineering?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>from the faq [ChemE</a> | PH.D CEP Program FAQ](<a href=“http://web.mit.edu/cheme/academics/grad/phdcep-faq.html]ChemE”>http://web.mit.edu/cheme/academics/grad/phdcep-faq.html)</p>

<li>What is the ratio of acceptance for the PhDCEP program compared to the normal PhD?
Both the ratio and the absolute number of applicants are not public information. The ratio of acceptances to applicants has been essentially the same for both programs, with some inevitable scatter owing to the smaller sample base in PhDCEP program.</li>
</ol>

<p>Keep in mind the number of PhD CEPs is a very small fraction of the number of normal PhDs.</p>
