A2Wolves6,

The estimate should be based on the target enrollment # (5600), not the deposit #(6400). It seems another over-enrollment year again!

The estimated accepted # is 5600/46.4% = 12069.
The acceptance rate should be 12069/27400 = 44%

If the application # and the yield continue to go up then it will be very soon to break the 40% acceptance rate and go to the 30ish%.
