LARGEST FIRST-YEAR CLASS TO ARRIVE SUNDAY

Carnegie Mellon's Class of 2014, its largest freshmen class, will arrive Sunday to move into their residence halls and to begin a weeklong orientation program geared to help them make the transition to university life. This year's class of 1,480 students breaks the previous high water mark of 1,465 students in the Class of 2012. It also is one of the most diverse classes in the university's history, setting new enrollment records with 117 African American students and 105 Hispanic students.

The Class of 2014 enters with a strong record of academic achievement. Eighty-one students were valedictorians and 12 students earned perfect SAT scores. On average, incoming students completed high school with a 3.65 grade point average and ranked in the top 9 percent of their classes. Average SAT scores were 670 in critical reading, 720 in math and 680 in writing.

Geographically, the first-year class represents 29 countries and 43 states, plus the District of Columbia and the territory of Puerto Rico. Fourteen percent are international students representing Bermuda, Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Czech Republic, France, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Israel, Italy, Japan, Korea, Kazakhstan, Mexico, Malaysia, Nigeria, Norway, New Zealand, R.O.C. Taiwan, Singapore, Switzerland, Thailand, Turkey, United Arab Emirates and Venezuela. There are no first-year students from Alabama, Arkansas, Iowa, Louisiana, Montana, South Dakota and Wyoming.

Forty-five percent of students are from Middle Atlantic states, and 17 percent are from Pennsylvania. The West claims 14 percent of the first-year class, while the South and New England each claim 8 percent. Approximately 5 percent are from the Midwest, while another 5 percent are from the Southwest. Less than 1 percent represents U.S. territories.

Conspicuously absent is the number of Asians, but they already had more of those than they knew what to do with.
I feel like I just beat a kitten to death... with a bag of puppies.
