True Admission Rates at Highly Selective Colleges

I hate to tell you this but the stated admission rates for the typical student to highly selective colleges is actually less than stated. How is that possible?

When you subtract legacy students, athletic recruits, and underrepresented populations, the actual admission rate for ordinary students is much lower than commonly stated.  The actual rate isn’t known because colleges don’t want to disclose this kind of information but students applying to highly selective colleges need to be aware of this.

Does this mean you shouldn’t apply?  Of course not. But when applying to a highly selective college make sure that you also have some less selective colleges you are applying to.

You can trust us to help you find the best college for your needs. We offer a FREE 1/2 hour consultation to discuss your needs for college admissions counseling. Give us a call now at 888-970-BSMD(2763) or drop us an email.
