Isn’t it posted some time ago already?
From the Almanac, the in state admission rate was 44% last year and 25% for OOS. If they admit around 10,000 OOS students like last year, the OOS admission rate would be ~20% this year.

the in-state acceptance rate was 42.4% last year.

Yield must’ve gone up a lot. @billcsho when will that info you posted be released for 2017?

In the past, they had in on the news in late May. But they did not do that last year until much later. Hopefully, it will be on the newspaper website before CDS or Almanac update months later.

I think they were expecting the lower rate due to the extra 500 students they took last year?

I’m just excited that Michigan is in the under 25% club
