<p>What is the most selective college program in the US? Is it Deep Springs, who only takes 26 men? I heard Harvard has a program they only allow 2 people into each year...</p>

<p>maybe juliard...</p>

3

<p>I was thinking of Julliard too</p>

4

<p>I third that--Juliard.</p>

<p>I believe the acceptance rate is 3%?</p>

5

<p>On the US News rankings, I think Julliard has a 7% acceptance rate- but Curtis has a 3%. I don't quite understand that...maybe I misread.</p>

<p>why are you trying to get in to it? lol just kidding :)</p>

<p>If you're going to mention the theater programs like Juilliard, you might as well mention the School of Drama at Carnegie Mellon and the CCM at UCincinatti, because they're just as competitive.</p>

<p>I would also think that Deep Springs is very competitive, but really how many applications do you think they get??</p>

<p>Here's the data for Deep Springs.</p>

<p>8% accepted. 26 undergraduates.</p>

<p>I think the most selective is actually the US Coast Guard academy. they only take .... 6 % of their applicants.</p>

<p>According to <a href="http://www.usnews.com/usnews/edu/college/rankings/brief/webex/lowacc_brief.php%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.usnews.com/usnews/edu/college/rankings/brief/webex/lowacc_brief.php&lt;/a>, it's curtis that has the lowest admission rate.</p>

12

<p>US Coastal Academy 7% acceptance i think.</p>

<p>Curtis and Juilliard (for instrumentals) are more selective than top notch musical theatre schools like CCM, BC, CMU, Emerson etc. I believe Juilliard gets more applications than Curtis, but accepts more. Im not quite sure which is more selective but both are equally VERY selective.</p>

<p>Deep Springs seems like too much work for me lol...it's like all they do is work on a farm...</p>
