Colleges and Universities A-Z Cornell University

<p>I recently sent in my Cornell application early decision and I had a few questions about it....</p>

<p>A) Does anybody know how the applications are reviewed. (i.e. how many people view them, is it by a committee)</p>

<p>B) How many people apply early decision to each school?</p>

<p>C) What percentage of the class is filled through early decision applicants?</p>

<p>D) Does applying early decision help your chances? (I know a higher percentage of people are admitted but many people have told me that the applicant pool is significantly stronger)</p>

<p>E) What percentage get deferred to regular decision and what percentage get rejected outright?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance, any help would be appreciated</p>

<p>C)No more than 33%
D)Yes. Cornell acknowledges a slightly weaker ED pool. Strong interest in school is what helps.</p>
