ED apps are up at Dartmouth and Duke by 3% and 33%, respectively.</p>
<p>But Yale’s numbers are down. In addition, according to [Yale</a> Daily News - Early applications fall 5 percent](<a href=“http://www.yaledailynews.com/news/university-news/2009/11/17/early-applications-fall-5-percent/]Yale”>http://www.yaledailynews.com/news/university-news/2009/11/17/early-applications-fall-5-percent/),</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>It seems to me that the universities that have high gains are going to put the information out there faster than the ones who are lagging, so it may take some time to see the full picture.</p>
<p>They’re down 5% at Yale.</p>
<p>Do internationals usually pay full price?</p>
<p>Yes, they do. Not all, but most, it seems.</p>
<p>Does it follow that accepting more internationals is akin to public universities accepting more full pay OOS students?</p>
<p>A new thought on this old thread:</p>
<p>Perhaps the 1320-1530 figure is the US News (i.e., incorrect) way of calculating average SAT? Let’s remember that there’s a new admissions office, and it would probably be smart to make it seem that the 25th-75th percentiles were more spread out, so as to encourage more applications.</p>
<p>Last year’s US News version of the statistics was 1310-1530, so this would make sense. I did think that a 40-point increase in gap between the two percentiles was a bit too much in one year, after observing historical statistics.</p>
