Princeton/Stanford cross admits

<p>i seriously doubt that. When I went to admit weekend I met many, many kids like me who were deciding between HYPS. Alot of them were from the east coast like me and loved the change of pace on the west coast and chose Stanford.</p>

<p>baba said,"That leads to a fugure like 950 CA enrolling at Sford."</p>

<p>The numbers for 2008 are 1648 entering freshman, from CA 664 (40.3%).</p>

<p><a href="http://www.stanford.edu/home/stanford/facts/undergraduate.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.stanford.edu/home/stanford/facts/undergraduate.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>simba my lionking,</p>

<p>I have seen numbers as high as 45%. Say 700, nice round thing.
yield 2/3rd so CA admit 1050. Applicants( x8.5)= 10,000. Well I said 12000. We close. </p>

<p>Out of 19000 we have 10000 applicants from CA. If this regional thing such a hot thing then simply extrapolate (Population OR,WA,AZ,NV,WY MON,UT Devide that by CA population and mulyiply by 10000 then you will have another 3000 from Western states. Now 13000 applicants from West/w CA. Another 1200 International, total 14200, leaving about 5000 for 250mm US population.</p>

<p>I am not that far off in my estimates. ever wonder why UCPA only gives Class Rank and SAT distribution as Class profile, u have th etruth.</p>

<p>you make numbers up better than anyone i know. your one special kid</p>

<p>"theyve been demonstrated to show "tufts syndrome" for east coast applicants likely to get into HYPM because their yield is affected by travel costs."</p>

<p>You can't really say Stanford practices Tuft's Syndrome. If anything, there is evidence that Princeton practices Tuft's Syndrome but I won't go down that road since I respect Princeton.</p>

<p>Anonymous, if they demonstrated Tufts syndrome with East Coast applicants then why would Stanford's largest cross admit pool be with Harvard, followed by Yale? In addition, why would 56% of the students that chose not to enroll at Stanford go to Harvard, Yale or Princeton?</p>

<p>nintando,</p>

<p>this sf junk data is the reason for this troll. In RD SF knowing fully well that they have 14000 west applicant with solid chance of getting things filled by them goeson fishing trip by letting lot of HYEAs in RD. They all go away. Them you publish the data and declare the victory. For SF, you high yield/high volume CA pool then you have low volume low yield Noth East Pool(Mostly HYP Pool). </p>

<p>Any body can create such data to create a association. EA information are shared, SAT has names of schools. EA admits typically apply 1 or 2 more for just in case situation. HY pool of EA is around 1000, if 100-200 apply stanford/UCB/Caltch, it more for weather.</p>

<p>message in life: when someone declares victory by losing then aim is not win but just show up contest. True champions win, that is what IVY try to do to each other. For them SF who?</p>

<p>Yale and Pton would love to rip Harvard pool, they fight fight this will go on for another 100 years SF is onesided fight.HYP do notcare what SF wants they are busy with each other. There are reason behind creating such crossadmit pools.
It fooled bunch of you. A simple data like regional breakdown will unwind this mystry. UCPA should try that.</p>

<p>baba wins....for him Stanford is UCPA. or Jr. College For the rest of the world it is a world clas institution - and we are stupid.</p>

<p>Congratulations.</p>

<p>UCB is worldclass institution but has regional UG same as SF. IT the Graduate programs which are better there. SF MBA do they have 45% ca ADMIT?</p>

<p>a lesson i never seem to learn: dont base arguments on hearsay.</p>

<p>ill just make it clear that as an east coast applicant, i would have chosen stanford over HYP. but alas, i applied RD and was rejected, so ill be at princeton. (im mad that they dont do interviews)</p>

<p>only school which should be considerd SF peer inthe is not hyp but MIT.
In CA SF peer is UCB/Caltech. Now look at 11000 applicants at MIT how they get folks to travel:</p>

<p>NewEng 12%
Mid Atl 19%
West 20%</p>

<p>They get enough from from all over to make a great class. SF should try to get to MIT level.</p>

<p>baba, I am pretty sure that universities do not know whether an applicant has been accepted early to another institution. Remember the whole Princeton hacking into Yale computers fiasco a few years ago? Why would that have happened if Princeton knew which applicants were already accepted EA by Yale?</p>

<p>Additionally, if you asked anyone on the Harvard, Yale or Princeton admissions committee, they would tell you that they see Stanford as a peer institution and a strong competitor for the very top applicants in the nation.</p>

<p>pton hacking Yale is proff they care about Yale. Just Like UCB and SF.
Lowelll school of SF, 650 Graduates, 50% UC, 10% Cal State on 15 % other schools. Thay have about 5 Noble prize winners. If you want to see how UCH beats the **** out of UC Palo Alto, Chekc out lowell SF Placement data.</p>

<p>i hace attended all IVY presentation, they never identify SF ad peer.</p>

<p>Harvard: Yale, Pton, Brown Columbia
Yale: Harvard, Pton, Brown, Columbia
Brown: Harvard, Yale Pton, Penn Columbia
Penn: Harvard, Yale, Pton, Columbia
MIT: Harvard, Yale, Georgetown</p>

<p>HYP do not even acknowledge MIT as a peer, just that MIT always mentions them as a peers. Go attend a sessions at Harvard and MIT, you will see MIT is always desparate to get in the name game while IVY only mention oth IVYs , sometime Georgetown or Amhest/Williams name comes up.</p>

<p>You are absolutely wrong about Harvard.</p>

<p>In most years, the largest common-admit overlaps are, in order, with (1) Stanford, (2) Yale, (3) Princeton and (4) MIT.</p>

<p>baba is wrong about almost everything.</p>

<p>I have already indicated to you that SF cross admit data can be easily cooked up. Out if 2000 North east apllications which Stan FU get syear year, you screen by class rank, GPA, SATs> 1500, that would reave about 3000. Then you look at schools on their SAT scoes and select the one who have HYP only( one two or all three) . If some one has HYP plus Penn or Columbia, then he nor confident. You also do such screen to CA applicants with HYP only from SAT scores.( SAT names all places where scores are sent). That way you would end up about 500-1000 names. You admit about 500 by guessing better yet get EA lists. Then you loose 400 of them, you get CA ones. See it is soooo simple.</p>

<p>pick up the phones and call the admission office and ask the question " who are your peers institutions?"</p>

<p>baba, you fool, MIT is a COMPLETELY different type of school from HYP. hence the lack of cross-admit competition.</p>

<p>and besides, this is a useless discussion. no matter what, the fact will remain, H=Y=P=S=M.</p>
