yes - inquiring minds want to know |
seems like a virute signaling (and i appreciate it) way to increase aps. my hope is that it means it will be easier to get in |
Do we know why men don't like Brown as much as women? How many males applied ED? |
Look at CDS. Boys have a slightly easier shot compared to girls at brown |
+1. My boy applied RD. |
I only know of Tobey Maguire’s daughter. |
Ruby Sweetheart? |
+1 But if this is typically the case at other Top schools in other years....? Can anyone comment? |
Thousands more female applications than male? No, that’s just Brown. Yale skews female, too, but nothing like Brown. |
Anyone have a guess as to why Brown would be more attractive to females than males? My boys both liked Brown, though we didn't visit any other Ivies. |
Last year
Brown 19,666 male (846) 31,550 female (849) Yale 22,003 male (788) 29,699 female (853) I have a non-artsy son at Brown, visited all except Dartmouth. Yale and Brown were favorites. Speculating maybe less pre-prof, not big Greek life, and community vibe appeals to females (and males). |
Historically open curriculum. No business school etc. Leaned progressive. Old post on here on this topic. Search. |
I have a daughter who applied to both, and didn't realize the relatively skew But I meant that if colleges are extending deadlines, is that a good sign for those who applied on time in terms of admission chances |
Schools have done this for years for students from natural disaster areas. My kid's year, many schools offered extensions to kids in some hurricane zones. |
No. The extension is for special circumstances. |
