<p>Takes a less than an hour to follow-up on all 58 deferreds.</p>

<p>With gpjkoo’s post, I am revising my numbers:</p>

<p>Following up on deferred SCEA pledgers - revised.</p>

<p>Of the 58 SCEA deferreds:</p>

<p>3 were Accepted (congratulations to victorkangnz, chair2, and gpjkoo)
2 were Waitlisted</p>

<p>12 have explicitly confirmed their rejection (possibly by cursing Yale)
31 have not been explicit in announcing their rejection but indicate other acceptances
10 have not posted at all since Jan. 1</p>

<p>Assuming these last two categories were Rejections:</p>

<p>Yale SCEA Pledgers, deferred then accepted: 5.2%
Yale SCEA Pledgers, deferred then waitlisted: 3.4%
Yale SCEA Pledgers, deferred then rejected: 91.4%</p>

<p>Of the total number of initial pledgers, 20.6% were eventually accepted, 1.9% waitlisted, 77.5% rejected.</p>

<p>My D told me she is very glad this study was not done last year. She would have given up hope after being deferred :).</p>

<p>I’m glad your D didn’t give up, but I did do the same last year, too.</p>

<p>Results are remarkably similar. And just like this year, a late result caused me to re-post.</p>

<p>I was deferred, waitlisted, and then accepted!!!</p>

565

<p>For the rest of my stats:
Accepted: Brandeis, Wesleyan, JHU, Cornell, Columbia, Brown, UPenn
Waitlisted: Harvard, Yale, Princeton
Rejected: NA
Accepted off the waitlist: Yale</p>

566

<p>Dan, out of curiosity, which school had you accepted before you got off Yale’s waitlist?</p>

567

<p>@beatitudo - I had originally matriculated at Penn.<br>
Also, just as an addendum, I was eventually rejected off of Harvard’s waitlist and accepted off of Princeton’s, but I am sticking with Yale for next year.</p>
