<p>
</p>
<p>That’s an acceptance rate for CMU as a whole; remember that the acceptance rates for CMU’s individual colleges very drastically (and thus may be much lower than 30%).</p>
<p>In the past two years, we saw Tufts aceptance rate go from 27% to 24% to what it is currently at 22%.</p>
<p>Any stats for Pitzer, Scripps and UC Davis?</p>
<p>Shocked Xiggi missed this one from the NYT list</p>
<p>U. of Wisconsin, Madison apps 28,814 accepts 14,341 49.77%</p>
<p>As usual, my dear and ever so judgmental friend Barrons, you are dead wrong. Just as you were when you bet with me about the admission rate and yield at UW. </p>
<p>I added the table well before NYT added UW-Madison, but it would require attention to details to know that. While I do not see the need to update this constantly, I have looked up numbers when members asked for them. </p>
<p>Yet, the general idea is for others to add numbers as they become available. </p>
<p>Next!</p>
<p>is there a way to estimate the “true” rate at Columbia for apples to apples comparison?</p>
<p>^^^: I’m not sure what do you mean by a true rate but acceptance rate at a school with ED is not comparable to school with no ED.</p>
<p>I don’t think Columbia lies about it’s RD acceptance rate, it just give more information by dividing the rate for Columbia College and Engineering College and an overall rate.</p>
<p>xiggi - do you have the statistics for Haverford, Wesleyan, Trinity and Connecticut College? Thanks for all of your work on these numbers as they are fascinating.</p>
<p>hey Xiggi, Can you compile all the info about college acceptances and create a list of college/ admit rate/# applicants/# admitted that can be added to as acceptances come in? a la the
Class of 2015: List of Acceptances (H.S. 2011) thread?
It would be very useful if its alphabetical order.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I know Wesleyan’s number of application wa down to about 10,000, but the exact number of admissions is missing from the press coverage. I have no verifiable news for the other schools. Should show up in the next days.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>And completely omits any information on admission to its School of General Studies, a non-trivial number of undergraduates admitted under presumably less rigorous admissions standards who end up taking the same courses as Columbia College (except for a handful of CC “core” courses closed to General Studies students) and, to some extent, Engineering students. </p>
<p>That may not be “lying” exactly, but it’s disinformation by deliberate omission.</p>
<p>

<p>I am afraid that doing that is well beyond my capabilities and pay scale. 
On the other hand, you might ask the usual contributors to add the numbers they receive from each successful school.</p>
<p>^^ no , no. Sorry I was not clear- I’m not asking about individual acceptances, just a cut and paste consolidation into one post of the overall admit rates information you have already posted that is scattered elsewhere on this thread. </p>
<p>a la
Harvard 7.4%, 35000, 2500
Princeton 7.8%, 28000, 2400 etc, etc…
[I just made those numbers up]</p>
<p>english, I saw the numbers for Conn College somewhere, probably on the NYTimes. Of the five schools my D applied to, Conn was the only one whose number of applicants in 2011 declined. I’m sure it’s because it does not give merit aid… and it’s $55K a year.</p>
<p>See this thread on the College Search forum with just % acceptance rates listed in order from Julliard 5.5% and up:</p>
<p><a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-search-selection/1115323-initial-acceptance-rates-class-2015-a.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-search-selection/1115323-initial-acceptance-rates-class-2015-a.html</a></p>
<p>^^^^yes, keep an eye on this one…it will be upgraded periodically</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>bclintonk, yes I find this truly deceitful from Columbia…particularly if the undergraduate students of General Studies take the same classes as those of the Columbia College and College of Engineering students…</p>
<p>futher, you will note that Columbia is still claiming a 9.16% acceptance rate for the class of 2014 even though the 75 kids admitted from the waitlist increased it to 9.44%.</p>
<p>What are students to expect in terms of learning from a college that is purposely deceitful to its own students and applicants?></p>
<p>Hey guys I am new to this website and i have a hard decision to make… i am accepted to Jonhs Hopkins biomedical engineering, MIT, Yale, Stanford, Tufts, an Princeton (I didnt get any rejections WOOHOOO). What is the est palce for biomedical engineering?</p>
<p>internatusa-you should start a new thread on this question. you will get more relevant responses.</p>
<p>Columbia sait its rate is 6.4%
