<p>As far as ED admissions go, is Duke more selective than Cornell and JHU? I'm trying decide what to go ED for. I like them all the same but i don't think i can get into any RD.</p>
<p>well, it all depends on which school you apply to, Cornell engineering is signifcantly more difficult to be accepted to than Duke, if you are comparing business schools, probably about equal, i guess arts and sciences duke is harder</p>
<p>Cornell and Duke are pretty much the same. I think JHU is easier than both. If you're thinking of applying ED to any of them, make sure that you're positive it's the one you like best... Cornell and Duke, at least, have extremely different atmospheres (i've never visited at JHU, so I couldn't tell you about that one, lol)</p>
<p>JHU is definitely different from the other two. It loves ED people...when I went there they were practically begging people to apply early.
Don't ever, ever ever apply early to a college just for the reason that it would be easier to get into ED. Make sure it is right for you, and you are reasonably qualified for that college. Applying early should be a tip factor.</p>
