Acceptance rates IS=35%, OOS=23%

<p>Based on numbers from Dean J's blog and the Cavalier Daily today:
Instate acceptances: 2530, applications: 7073
OOS acceptances: 2565, applications: 10928</p>

<p>So OOS is about on par with Cornell, GT 20 -21% and better (or worse) than Penn, Darthmouth 15% according to the WSJ.</p>

<p>OMG, is that true?!?!</p>

<p>Thats weird because Dean J's blog says that there were 6,073 offers of admission but nonetheless its impressive and scary</p>

<p>I don't believe the numbers quoted in the Cavalier Daily article (5,095 offers of admission) include the 973 students who were accepted Early Decision. Adding these students accepted ED gives you a total of 6,068 offers of admission, which is very close to the 6,073 offers Dean J. "guesstimated" on her blog. I can't recall the In-State/Out-of-State breakdown on the ED acceptances, but I believe the numbers were in line with historical norms.</p>
