Admissions

<p>In my acceptance letter, it states that "The University's freshman class of 2,350 was chosen from over 19,000 applicants." But that makes the acceptance rate at like 12.3%, and that can't be right, can it? Since most websites put GWU's admission rate at like 35%?</p>

<p>Any explanations? Am I just having a stupid moment?</p>

<p>2,350 is what will be the size of the freshman class. They accept more people (36% of applicants) than the size of the class, because not everyone will actually enroll.</p>

<p>besides, there is the transfer group as well…</p>
