<p>First of all a HUGE congrats to all the people that got in ED at Carnegie Mellon. you guys are truly amazing and hope you guys continue to be successful in all walks of life!</p>
<p>i am planning to apply RD to HSS but was just curious to find out the stats of the ppl on CC that were accepted. so for those accepted students, can u please post your stats (gpa, sat/act, subject tests, ec, state, and what school and major you applied to)?</p>
<p>thank you and again CONGRATS</p>
<p>Hi Eagles<em>for</em>life, thanks for opening this thread! I would like to know the stats for CMU ED1 acceptances too. From what I know, many of the ED1 applicants have not received letter from CMU yet. So to gather stats that’s resourceful for class of 2015 (ED1), I think it will probably take some time. </p>
<p>I applied to SCS for Early decision 2. Anyone here applied to the same school with me too, for ED2?</p>
<p>oh I did
SCS for ED2 right?
waiting a month is driving me crazy
i’m soo anxious
I wish you the best of luck :)</p>
<p>Hi digifreak,nice to meet you! Thanks for the wishes. I wish you all the best for your applications too. Now I only know under Early Decision, only your first college choice is considered for admission. CMU will not consider other schools choices you applied to under Early Decision. (Sigh) <em>Damn frustrating</em></p>
<p>I got into SCS EDI
I’m so excited!!</p>
<p>Congratulations, bli7193. What are your scores please?</p>
<p>I guess I’ll start.</p>
