Early Decision Applications
Total number of Early Decision applications: 2,159
Total number of VA apps: 1,165
Total number of OOS apps: 994
We use completed applications in our statistics.
Early Decision Offers
Overall offers: 748
Total VA offers: 466 (40% offer rate)
Total OOS offers: 282 (28% offer rate)
Enrollment Goal: ~3,750
This means 20% of the class will have come from the Early Decision round.
It's misleading to average these offer rates together because residency is a major factor in our review. If you are going to share these numbers, cite BOTH offer rates.
Early Decision Defers
Overall defers: 570
Total VA defers: 334
Total OOS defers: 236
Deferred students are no long bound by Early Decision agreements. Read more about deferral here (this link is in all defer letters).
What I find interesting is how many student were flat-out denied.
If my math is correct...
Total number of VA apps: 1,165
Total VA offers: 466 (40% offer rate)
Total VA defers: 334
466+334=800 total number who were either accepted now or deferred.
1165-800=365 who were flat out denied.
I'd be curious to know about those applications.
Was it serious wishful thinking?
Could they have been better off doing regular decision?

It doesn't looks like it was much easier?
