HYP admit rates this year?

<p>Anybody know the admit rates for Harvard, Yale, and Princeton this year?</p>

<p>Yale's was 8.6%</p>

<p>Harvard was 7.1%; the RD rate at Yale was 5.6%.</p>

<p>^W.o.w. :eek:</p>

<p>The rates were around 9% two years ago.</p>

<p>It is shocking that they went down two percent.</p>

<p>w00t, lovely!</p>

<p>/blatant sarcasm</p>

<p>I dont think Yale's is that low.</p>

<p>^^ for RD, probably. Schools that have early programs--like Yale and Stanford--will have lower admit rates for RD, but higher rates overall. Stanford accepts about 1/3 of its total admittees in the early round, so that leaves about 1600-1700 spots for RD, out of 20k+ applicants for RD. Much of the same can be said of Yale.</p>
