MIT Grants Early Admission to Less Than 8% of Applicants

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, in keeping with its reputation for selectivity, admitted 657 out of 8,394 early applicants to the Class of 2021, for an acceptance rate of 7.83%. Last year’s ED acceptance rate, 8.45% of 7,767 applicants, was a tad more generous but still pretty daunting. The lesson: if you’re planning on applying to MIT, keep those grades up!
