I was just curious as to how the deferred process functions? How many deferred people get accepted? and whats the primary cause of them being accepted? A jump in gpa im guessing?
Looks like last year they accepted 33% of those deferred. During the regular admission round, they might look at your second choice major and admit you to that (if your first choice is very competitive like engineering).
