Notable Admission Rate Changes for the Class of 2020
Given how sophisticated colleges have become in recruiting applicants, it's dangerous to rely on old admissions data.
We've taken a look at our coverage universe and identified schools with notable admission rate differences between the Class of 2020 and the Class of 2019. In addition to providing the admission rates, we've included some commentary to explain why as well as a link back to the source article.
Relative to last year, the number of schools with notable changes is more muted. Unfortunately, the news from the majority of schools listed is not in your favor, and depending on how you categorize schools, the change may be enough to turn a safety into a target or target to a reach. On the flip side, we have also identified a few schools where rates have gotten more favorable overall, or for a particular segment of applicants. Regardless, take a moment to review the list—the last thing anyone needs at this point is a surprise.
College Kickstart subscribers: Class of 2020 admission rates are available for nearly 80 institutions and departments within those institutions in the latest release of College Kickstart.
