<p>One may wonder "why did Georgetown lose to Ohio State on saturday? Lets see, Ohio State accepts well over 70% of its applicants, Georgetown 20. This year, about 16,300 applicants applied to G-town, yet only about 1,300 were accepted. If one were to look at Ohio State, they would find that well over the majority who applied where accepted.</p>
<p>Wow Georgetown, you've tried so hard but came only so far. Pay back must suck.</p>
<p>nice try. georgetown accepts well above that number because they anticipate that not all of those accepted will enroll. number admitted does not equal number enrolled</p>
<p>this year they only accepted 20% of the applicants. my friend got a letter from them.</p>
<p>somehow, i don't think 1,300/16,300 = 20%</p>
<p>And somehow, I don't think 1,300 represents the number who enrolled either. Ususually, 1,800 Freshmen enroll at Georgetown each year. YahYah, I think your friend meant to say that 3,300 were admitted and 1,800 of those will enroll.</p>
