<p>:D IT IS MY FIRST CHOICE, but I need to know more on my chances for both. I'm not the most impressive applicant, but I do have a passionate focus in graphic design with some coding experience (CS major). Several other posts have my stats. I'm scared to get denied with EA instead of accepted or deferred. :( I think that will hurt more than RD, if that's even possible. </p>
<p>Does anyone know the percentages for EA v. RD? Thanks!</p>
<p>I don’t have the stats, but I know Stanford doesn’t like to defer people when they apply SCEA, they just outright deny them. I can’t tell you if you’re going to get in or not (it’s a game of chance at colleges at that level), but you’ll live if you get denied. It’s not the end of the world.</p>
<p>Thanks, I think I’ll go for RD because the applicant pool for EA will be extra impressive, and I want a higher chance. It’s just that I had my heart set on that school and I can’t imagine not going there.</p>
<p>I hear that they defer less than 10% of all REA applicants (I was one and I didn’t have stellar SAT scores) but they don’t guarantee that if you’re deferred that you’ll get accepted come the RD round. Good luck!</p>
<p>What is the percentage acceptance rate for REA?</p>
<p>I’m thinking of applying REA with the 2 Arts Supplements - will this boost my chances?</p>
<p>^Not necessarily, or else everyone would submit one. You should be very, very good and have been recognized on a large scale for your talents if you’re submitting a portfolio.</p>
<p>I might do photography and visual arts - my photos have been featured in school publications, and I have won a logo contests on a global scale for my graphic design portfolio in addition to maintaining content websites. The arts department will be reviewing my portfolio, so what will they think of this?</p>
<p>@glassesarechic, do you have an old chances/stats thread? I would like to see the stats of a Princeton acceptee :)</p>
