Ah that’s great info! Would be useful to get similar numbers for EAGx events. I know the overall acceptance rate is quite high, but don’t know how it is for students who are applying for their regional EAGx.
EAGx undergraduate acceptance rate across 2024 and 2025 = ~82%
EAGx first-timer undergraduate acceptance rate across 2024 and 2025 = ~76%
Obvious caveat that if we tell lots of people that the acceptance rate is high, we might attract more people without any context on EA and the rate would go down.
As a group organiser I was wildly miscalibrated about the acceptance rate for EAGs! I spoke to the EAG team, and here are the actual figures:
The overall acceptance rate for undergraduate student is about ¾! (2024)
For undergraduate first timers, it’s about ½ (Bay Area 2025)
If that’s peaked your interest, EAG London 2025 applications close soon—apply here!
