US-domestic application points
Domestic perspective
- Overall admit rate12%. The actual number for the domestic pool (which holds most seats) is roughly aligned with the official figure.
- Financial aid / FAFSANeed-blind for domestic; FAFSA aid applications don't affect admission (need-aware applies only to international).
- Privates have no in-state preferenceDomestic applications don't differentiate by state, but schools care about state representation (over-concentrated areas face competitive squeeze).
- Test policyMost schools are test-optional. Domestic high scorers should submit to strengthen the profile; low scorers may opt out.
- Application timingED/EA deadlines early November, RD January. Domestic families typically begin college visits at the end of 11th grade.
International / F1 application points
F1 perspective
- International friendliness：2/3 — Normal international pool (most schools), admit rate 30-60% lower than domestic
- Need-blind for international：✗ No — F1 applicants applying for aid see significantly lower admit rates (need-aware)
