Are acceptance rates by program released?

I’m curious what the acceptance rate is overall for Chapman and for Dodge overall and film production (is that the most competitive major?). Especially this year after their film program ranking went up I imagine they got more applicants than ever? Does this information get released?

Per Chapman’s undergrad FAQs: Film production has a 7% acceptance rate, the rest of the Dodge programs 30%-40%.

ETA: 2021-22 CDS is out, showing a 60% admit rate for Chapman overall. https://www.chapman.edu/campus-services/institutional-research/_files/cds/cds_2021-2022.pdf

My daughter’s college admissions consultant just received an email stating that Chapman had “ 14,361 applications and offered admission to only 1,717.” Is that correct?!?

That can’t be correct…they are likely targeting a class size of 1,717. Last year per the CDS, linked above, they accepted 9,115 applicants for a class in the mid 1600s.
