<p>everywhere because there were way more students applying?
and UCLA has the greatest number of applicants nationawide?
what a good year...</p>
<p>Yeah, I mean if you think about it logically the admittance rate should decrease! UCLA can only admit a certain amount of people each year no matter how many people apply. Last year UCLA admitted 15,689 students from about 61,566 applications. Regardless of the fact that about 75,000 people have applied this for UCLA, they can only take in 15-16k students anyway! So if you do the math, and base the admittance rate based upon last years intake of students, then the admittance rate should be about 17% or so…my math could be off. :P</p>
<p>lol uh honestly I don’t know what you expected.</p>
<p>Despite large increases in applicants every year, UCLA still accepts around 23-26%. I don’t really expect that number to drop significantly this year. Last year, the number of applicants reached a “record high” but if I remember correctly the acceptance rate went slightly up compare to previous year(s). </p>
<p>UCLA, as with any other school, accepts MANY more applicants than it expects to actually enroll so the acceptance rate is not exactly representative of how many students UCLA can handle. New dorms are also always being built (somehow… I’m sure we’ll run out of space in the sky eventually) so it can accomodate more freshmen.</p>
