<p>I recently applied EA but i saw the 2014 acceptance rate was 5.6, when 2013 was at 30%. its kinda making me panic.
anyway here are my stats</p>

<p>GPA as of Junior year = 3.8 or 93/100.
sent SAT = 1880(pretty pathetic ik) 680 math/620 R/ 580 W. (9 Essay).
AP Junior year = AP Compsci, AP Chem. Aced both
AP Senior year =AP Physics, AP Calc AB, AP Stats
i dont have my trimester grade for senior year yet i assume its near 97-98/100
no class rank because i go to small independent school. I wont say name because i dont want to be tracked but its in the top 10 of my state, not sure if that helps or not.</p>

<p>i wouldn’t take too much insight into that recent statistic. Is that your UW GPA? I think it’s a low-reach for you, your SAT isn’t going to help you very much. I could see you being deferred until reg decision. Chance me back at

<p>why wouldnt you give too much insight on the recent statistic? just curious</p>

<p>because decisions haven’t even been released yet, and won’t be for a month. where did you see this statistic. a 5.6% selectivity would make it the most selective university in the US</p>

<p>google it now. I was so shocked when i saw it like that. they had 48000 applicants last year and accepted 2800. im hoping something is wrong here</p>

<p>Whoever calculated that 5.6% acceptance rate had no clue about college admissions. They enrolled 2800 freshmen out of 49,000 applications. They assumed that NU has a 100% yield rate. No school does.</p>

<p>The acceptance rate was 32% this past year. </p>

<p>can you tell me where you got 32 from?</p>

<p>@toonlink You don’t think they had room for 14,700 freshmen that year, right?</p>
