Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute's Early Action (EA) acceptance rate stands at 58.55% for the 2024 application year, with 161 out of 275 applicants accepted. This is a significant drop from the previous year's EA acceptance rate of 94.91%, where 261 of 275 applicants were accepted. The sharp decline indicates an increasingly selective process for early applicants. Historical data from prior years is not available, but this downward trend highlights the growing competitiveness of RPI's EA pool.
