I’m a mom of an applicant who still hasn’t heard, but I was thinking we could help the kids applying next year by posting information about our stats when everyone does hear. It would be good to be able to calculate acceptance rate for foreign vs. US, male vs. female, by test scores (100 point bands), and whether you have any ECs that were a natural fit (e.g. Model UN, debate, etc). If everyone is game, I could post a response format to use and then we’d be able to calculate based on the outcomes that were posted. Of course it would be imperfect information since not all applicants are linked in on College Confidential, but it would be good info. What does everyone think?
thats a great idea and here are the stats from last year that I found on the website:
total number of applications: 1600
Admissions rate: 37.5%
Female/male ratio: 54:46
Staff/student ratio: 7:1
48% of admitted students were international
80 different countries were represented
50 states and territories were represented
Median ACT score: 33
Median PSAT scores (Reading/Writing/Math): 67/67/68
Median SAT score: 2230
I’m an international applicant too! I would love to see New York again this summer where are you guys from?
Vietnam
New York City!
Pakistan !
This wait is absolutely killing me…I guess decisions aren’t coming today? :’(
@frspzz Dallas, TX
waiting is actually really painful, its causing me to dream about rejection.
We have to wait three more days now :-S
I can’t believe. At first was the 31st March, and now 7th April. Oh man
Yeah, this is terrible… Can’t imagine how seniors stand waiting for college app decisions
At least with college app decisions they tell you exactly when it is. This is just a little inconsiderate.
I guess we have to wait till Monday then? So terribly annoyed and frustrated with this…especially since last year I knew by the 31st.
Yeah I think Monday or Tuesday. I’m extremely annoyed by this as well. It’s preventing me from focusing on studying for AP exams.
@ISpy42 That would be really great! I know I could’ve really benefited from something like that when I was applying.
It’s all right guys, just keep yourself busy and the weekend will be over before you know it! (Never thought that’s something I’d say)
Luckily I have some stuff to take care of over the weekend so I’ll be occupied but I’ll be thinking about it in the back of my mind the entire time.
Just gotta bury myself in schoolwork till Monday I guess…nothing else can be done.
I haven’t got an answer yet either! I completely understand how you feel…
Anyways, good luck to everyone. Please as soon as you know anything about the results let us know :-w
Drove past Yale today on a road trip, was tempted to stop there and ask what’s up with these decisions lol
