@TomSrOfBoston Any stats on this year’s yield?
No and not likely until September when the “Institutional Accomplishments” is published online. I believe they are downplaying stats due to the flak from that old magazine article.
One of the orientation leaders mentioned that it was 19% acceptance this year. She also said that they will be phasing out honors due to the larger amount of highly qualified students (I am in honors btw just saying what she told us). Obviously, I cannot prove either thing and they may just be rumors.
@JDMoney1 The 19% acceptance rate appears to be official. Phasing out Honors is a new one, no idea if that is true.
They just hired an all new head of the honors program last year - so that rumor surprises me.
we toured a couple weeks ago and they were talking up the honors program to prospective students
@TomSrOfBoston any stats out now that the school year has started? I am seeing comments from parents that some frosh are still living in Midtown Hotel, so it makes me wonder about the housing needs still…
None that I have seen. There were about 10 students/parents who posted here on CC last May that they had been accepted off the waitlist. Surprised about the Midtown.
