SCEA '14 - Statistics for international students

Colleges and Universities A-Z Yale University
1

<p>Since everybody is discussing which country is underrepresented and which one is overrepresented, I thought that such a list might be of use to all you worried internationals.</p>

<p>The statistics are from Yale Admits website. I cannot think of any place that possibly has more trustworthy information. It would be great if we manage to get such data from previous years and keep that practice in future.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, we don't know how many actually applied.</p>

<p>So...</p>

<p>International admits come from:</p>

<p>Afghanistan (1)
Australia (1)
Bangladesh (1)
Brazil (1)
Bulgaria (1)
Canada (10)
China (6)
Costa Rica (2)

<p>omg, thank you so much.</p>

<p>and wow @ uk/canada.</p>

3

<p>Still though, 10 and 12 from an ENTIRE country isn’t very heartening :(</p>

4

<p>I’m Canadian and I know three of the people who were accepted. Everyone else I know of (around 20 people) was rejected. I’m the only deferree. :S</p>

5

<p>Can anyone get the numbers of 2014 SCEA acceptances by state?</p>

6

<p>No SCEA admit from Korea at all? Goodness hahah</p>

7

<p>^Yeah, that was what I was thinking!</p>

8

<p>10 admits for Canada already?! Ok DEFINITELY some hockey players being recruited haha.</p>

<p>@rockermcr you just made my day(which is huge considering I just got rejected from MIT haha). I thought they deferred a LOT of Canadians, but hell, if they rejected like 20 people u know, that must mean our apps clearly had something special in them lol</p>

9

<p>does anyone have this kind of data for regular applications?</p>

<p>OMG this is soo cool!</p>

<p>Thanks for doing that Miss Princeton! :D</p>

12

<p>79 int’l students, more than 600 domestic students. EA admits take up about half the place.</p>

13

<p>**** my life… So many places gone, so few left. Only 1 from South Africa and none from Zimbabwe (my countries) so they must have room for me! (Hope is the first step towards disappointment…)</p>

14

<p>Thank you so much Miss Princeton! =D
Just a quick question: no one admitted from South Korea!?</p>

15

<p>It seems so :slight_smile: Strange, huh? I guess they want to see the whole pool because everybody is so qualified.</p>

16

<p>For those of you who are worried about “so many spots being taken,” keep in mind that more students are admitted than there is room for, because not all admitted students eventually enroll. There is still hope.</p>

17

<p>I refuse to believe that no one from south korea was accepted</p>

18

<p>5 from Singapore? I think that’s not bad for a country with a population of about 4-5 million =D I think I know about 3 of them.</p>

19

<p>oh wow only 10 admits from canada?
i know two of them … they’re twins :S
my other friend and i both got deferred… waiting now… maybe 5 more admits from canada in RD? <em>crosses fingers</em></p>

20

<p>oh and the reason that there were no early admits from korea might be because a korean university sued Yale for $150 million or something like that and I believe that Yale lost the case and paid. It was for some credential fraud if my memory serves me correctly. </p>

<p>Yale might have some bitter feelings towards korean students at this point. xD</p>
