There is no easiest top school. there are easy majors and hard majors. it is much harder to get into Cornell Eng and Cornell CAS than ILR and HumEc Cornell.


Good point.
Cornell Hotel Management is one of the easiest.
CMU ED is one of the easiest but not for College of CS or even Engineering.



But the degree is trash unless you want to go into hospitality

It depends on your HS?

Our private can get 4 ED into WashU and 3-4 into Emory…
Usually kids with no shot elsewhere in T25.


It depends ENTIRELY on the high school. At my one child's private school WashU and UVA require a 3.95+ year-in and year-out. They're literally HYP level.
Cornell and Michigan take kids way down the GPA line.

My other kid's private has very little luck with Michigan (requires a 3.95) but gets kids into UVA with much lower grades.

Of the privates, probably CMU or Chicago or Cornell if you do ED. But instead of looking at it as what’s the most likely reach to get into, start firm the bottom up. Identify safeties and matches your kid would absolutely be happy going to and work up from there. Pick the reach that’s the best fit, not the most likely. Because they are all unlikely.


Michigan is no longer great. It should not even be counted in the top 25.

No. UVA is not anywhere close to getting into an Ivy at 21%. The Ivies are 3-5%. And for the kids that get in RD closer to 2%. They are near impossible. Look how many get into UVA in APS or Loudoun or Fairfax. Tons. Ivies virtually nobody.

^ and class size plays into that too. Freshmen class at Ivies are only 1,400-1,700 (around 6k total undergrads). UVA has 17k undergrads

This. To be unhooked and get in means an amazing kid.

If none are in-state:
ED1 at one of the lower ranked ones that also have lower-end pre-test optional stats like Emory or UVA (even OOS, UVA ED is not too hard).

Emory has a 10% acceptance rate and Emory Oxford has a 12.6% rate. WashU, Georgetown, Notre Dame, CMU all have higher acceptance rates. Georgetown has the lowest test scores as well.

Next time, please read the post you're applying to.

IT DEPENDS ON THE HIGH SCHOOL.

College admissions from Sidwell are not the same as "APS or Loudoun or Fairfax." Sidwell (for example) can have a relationship with Cornell in that Cornell may routinely take kids with a 3.7. However, UVA may say, "uh, no Sidwell, we require your applicants to have a 3.9." This happens all.the.time with private schools.
