<p>A couple of things.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>The USNews is part of the CDS organization. The issue is that Cal is playing games with the reporting by NOT including the Spring admits but including the applications in the denominator. This is why the admission rate for 2011-2012 is above 25 percent but reported at 21 to USNews. I will give you the correct number of admits later.</p></li>
<li><p>The admission rate for THIS fall will, however, be lower and at around 21 percent if the UCOP estimates are confirmed. I was quoting the 2011-2012 numbers in my previous posts. But again, the next CDS will have a misrepresented and lower number of admitted students. Unless Cal stops playing the Middlebury game.</p></li>
