Many of the accepted students so far applied through ed1 or ed2, so they won’t need to admit extra to account for yield.
I’m just going to hope for a miracle and hope that their acceptance rate increased bc RD chances now are really really low
I just want them to release decisions so I can get this over with
Rejected from Caltech and MIT. My last hope.
ED2 admit and future UChi student here, can’t wait to see the rest of the class today!!!
i’m screaming.
RD acceptance rate is probably around 1-2% but don’t lose hope!
If class size is 1600 and about 1000-1100 have already been admitted ED1 and Ed2 and 400 EA (assume EA yield 60% ?) there are 300-400 spots left for RD.
The numbers won’t be that high
I would agree that RD acceptance is probably around 2%.
They accepted 2500 last year, 1600 matriculated, so there’s more than 400 spots available for RD.
@Chrchill you haven’t considered the yield of rd students. they’ll accept more than 300-400 because not all will enroll.
Not really if ED! and ED@ is 1100 and 250 EA that means about 1350 spots are already spoken for. Be generous and make it 1250. That leaves 350 open spots.
with a yield of about 60% (probably higher) that leaves room for about 650 admits RD.
For rd they will probably accept two times the amount of spots available
You’re thinking about number enrolled. The number accepted is always higher bc in the end they know that not all people will enroll. 1600 enrolled makes more sense than 1600 accepted and if 1600 are accepted that’s roughly a 4% acceptance rate overall which is very very low @Chrchill
@Physics7 same here. I’m not expecting much but fingers crossed!
Ok so about 700-800 admits for regular
Okay there are only 4 more hours left!!! So I just want everyone to post short stats (scores, GPA, etc) just very very short stats once they get their decisions. The long breakdowns take forever to read so the short ones are better to get an idea. The long breakdowns can be posted later for class of 2022 but for the first few hours after decisions are released I’d really appreciate if you guys would post some stats! Thanks guys!
Here’s a format you can use:
DECISION:
SAT/ACT score:
GPA:
Rank:
Significant ECs:
Ethnicity:
Location:
There is a reason the ED schools even the ivies only try to fill about half of the class from early pool. They are willing to take a chance on the very top students who usually do not want to commit without knowing other options or FAs. Chicago is not that desperate. I highly doubt adding up EA/ED1/ED2 will be that different from other schools’ ED
Only a few hours away! Good luck everyone!
