<p>MIT competes mainly with Cal Tech UCB and Stanleyford</p>
<p>What? MIT shares more applicants with Harvard, Princeton and Stanford than any other schools...</p>
<p>baba=Byerly?</p>
<p>Just one of those odd and probably wholly unwarranted thoughts.</p>
<p>"Recently, however, Yale has begun to lose more Stanford common admits than it wins, particularly students from the Western states."</p>
<p>From the yale alumni magazine, november 2000:
<a href="http://www.yalealumnimagazine.com/issues/00_11/admissions.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.yalealumnimagazine.com/issues/00_11/admissions.html</a> </p>
<p>By Yale's own admission, Stanford competes with them for the top students, and quite successfully at that. Baba's claim (that Stanford takes Yale EA-admits so they can get turned down by lots of them but "pretend" that Yale is a peer) is ludicrous.</p>
<p>proves that it is UC palo Alto.</p>
<p>How does it prove anything baba. You should be banned from CC because you contribute absolutely nothing valuable and, instead, waste people's time by posting utter nonsense.</p>
<p>Hey that's offensive inuendo and I'm reporting you....jk, I've always wanted to say that</p>
<p>Harvard 20000 applications 20% from west coast 4000 applicants from West( say 60mm population) .</p>
<p>LS Jr Unjversity: get sabout 1000 applicants from Northeast( 60mm plus population),
Regional breakdown of UCPalo alto:
CA: 10000
WEst ex CA 3000
Int 2000
South 2000
Midwest 2000
NothEast 1000
Total 20,000</p>
<p>HYP outnumber Staley Furd 4 to 1 in cross coatal appeal.
Data suggests that Stale Food University is basically competing with UCB, UNI of OR, UNI of AZ, UNI of Wyoming, BYU etc to fill its class. May china for int students.
Case closed. Get your your monay back now before you get run over by CA crowd on campus.</p>
<p>lol i bet you just want your application fee back. its funny how you think its so bad yet you applied there.</p>
<p>Hey that's offensive sr6622 and I'm reporting you....</p>
<p>good to see a few folks leaving East for West, that will help raise IQs of both regions. Stalefood U needs it.</p>
<p>that was as rude as usual</p>
<p>Out of curiousity, baba, what are your explanations for Stanford being ranked so highly in virtually any rankings, be it undergraduate, graduate or both?</p>
<p>Good graduate programs( ENG/Bus), Most internationals applicants China and India are TECH types so they look at MIT, UCB, Stanford, CMU along with bunch of State Schools. I am sure SF does not have 70% of Graduate students from west coast like they have undergraduate. It is the enrollment and mix of class that defines diversity. UG data for this schools too much west coast centric to to compare with any others. UG enrollment wise it compares more with berkeley then MIT. Get regional breakdown( applicants and enrollment) and you will see that.</p>
<p>Sorry, was that a response to my question? I couldn't decipher it successfuly.....</p>
<p>does baba speak english? btw, white harlem, that article from YAM was from 2000. Im curious to see how much of that has changed recently-especially since Yale's applicant pool since then has increased by 75%.</p>
<p>baba is a hater. go do something YOUR school can be proud of rather than denigrating a fine institution.</p>
<p>prepster05, Stanford has only got stronger in the past 5 years and I would assume that it is an even bigger competitor to Yale. </p>
<p>For example, Stanford's cross-admit pool with Harvard is now larger than Yale's and Stanford is more successful at winning students from Harvard than Yale is.</p>
<p>Stanford has indeed gotten stronger; however, since 2000 Yale has had by far the largest transformation in terms of admissions among any of the top schools.</p>
<p>The biggest "transformation" in admissions at Yale since the year 2000 is that they have gone from the lowest fraction to the highest fraction in filling their freshman class from the early applicant pool - relative to HSPM. This transformation has benefitted its yield rate, but not necessarily its cross-admit rate vs. its chief rivals.</p>
