common data set

Does anyone know where the 14-15 Common Data Set can be found for Olin? I can’t seem to find it anywhere on their website…

Hi @purplepiano. Does this site help you at all? I will keep looking for a more official source, but hopefully this will help you. https://www.collegedata.com/cs/data/college/college_pg02_tmpl.jhtml?schoolId=2003

Hi @dearlybeloved, that data set is very outdated but I can’t find a newer one. Olin’s acceptance rate is closer to 8% now.

@purplepiano I don’t think they release their common data set, at least I haven’t seen a recent one. This website has info from fall 2014. I hope it helps.

I wonder if the acceptance rate numbers are a little skewed. Last year they were only looking to fill 54 spots because 27 are returning as gappies. This year its closer to low/mid twenties. Therefore they take less students.Where to the gappies fit in in the acceptance numbers?

I think the gappies fit in the year they actually start.

In addition to the source given by @MuggleMom, I would recommend speaking with Jeremy Goodman (http://jeremygoodman.com/about), the director of institutional research and evaluation at Olin. I hope this helps.

Don’t know if you’re still looking for this, but here’s the link to Olin’s 2014-15 CDS:

Found it by searching the site for common data set. Looks like last year’s admit rate was about 12%

Usually we have a lot of questions on these threads this time of year. But I suspect these days there are more web resources covering Olin topics. That’s a good thing :wink:
