<p>does anyone know this year's yield rate for admitted students. if it's higher this year (like i expect) it could explain the low number of people hearing from the waitlist.</p>
<p>I do not have a clue. But considering the fact that no one has been contacted yet, the yield rate for admitted students was high?</p>

this is from the post below. People who got off the waitlist is already contacted. According to the common data set, last year only 15 people got in off the waitlist. Not sure about this year, but I am guessing about the same number.</p>
<p>MetheMan -- How sure are you that Emory has already contacted the people on the waitlist who are admitted?</p>
<p>0% sure.
I have spoken to many students who have also been placed on Emory's waiting list and they still have not heard from the admissions office yet. But I am just curious if anyone else other than those I know have been contacted. It seems to me as if the admissions office is busy trying to reevaluate waitlisted students, but this is just my opinion. Hopefully, they all call us tomorrow!</p>
<p>intersting article from the washington post about yield and emory in particular.

<p>So based on some assumptions, 75 more people enrolled this year than last year. (50 over class size + 25 waitlist from last year.) Since the class size is around 1300, the yield is approx 5-6 % points higher? Not sure if what I did makes sense.</p>
