Waitlisted & the Statistical Chances of Getting In

<p>do you have statistics for Emory fall 09?</p>

<p>Hi duong91 & hawhuy2009,</p>

<p>I use the figures from the Common Data Sets the Colleges have posted on line on their websites.
The CDS’s are usually posted in January of the year following the Fall Admittance Season they are reporting on. So Fall of 09 - which hasn’t happened yet - won’t be available till January 2010.</p>

<p>But many College News Papers report on the Admissions activities at their College, so there may be stories in those campus newspapers that could give you some idea on how the New Class Admission process is going and whether they think they will need to go to the wait list.</p>

<p>2007 is the only CDS year currently posted - But since they don’t publish the data for the wait list in their CDS - having more years available wouldn’t really help much.

<p>Looking at this, you have to ask “What happened in 2008?”
Why did they need to go to the wait list for so many more admissions than ever before?
The answer appears to be the dramatic increase in applications in 2008 over prior years, making it harder for the Admissions Committee to identify those likely to attend if offered admission.</p>

<p>2008 TOTAL Applied 16,944<br>
TOTAL Admitted 4,292 </p>

<p>2007 Total Applied 12,911
Total Admitted 4,238</p>

<p>2006 Total Applied 12,189
Total Admitted 4,128</p>

<p>The increase in the number colleges students apply to;
results in the increase in the number of applications each institution has to review;
leading to a greater unpredictability of outcomes;
and more extensive use of the Waitlist by colleges.</p>
