[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This year, 11,883 students applied Early Action to the MIT Class of 2030. we have offered admission to 655.We deferred 7,738 applicants; these students will be reconsidered without prejudice in Regular Action, with decisions released sometime in March. Given the competitiveness of our pool, we have also informed 2,703 students that we will not be able to offer them admission this year. 787 — withdrew from our process before we released their decision.[/quote] Can someone please explain why deferral rate's so high? They deferred three times as many applicants as they rejected - is it because the caliber of students is so high or because they're afraid that RA won't yield anyone good and they'd have to extensively tap into their deferral pool? Seems odd for a highly selective college.[/quote]
