Holy ****. Did Uchicago really drop to 12% last year? Man that's WAY less than they've taken before. I guess I can give up any hope of being accepted there this year lol

As discussed on the 2006 transfer rate sticky thread, some of the colleges have the 2007 rates, but others appear to still have the old 2006 rates.

Thank you, wayward_trojan.

It is true that finding acceptance rates, on any kind of "overview" site such as College Board, is tricky; because they do not give the year. And, as others have noted, some of CBs data appear to be for different years for different schools.

Still, it is always useful to share as much data as anyone can obtain.

I will sticky this thread, but leave up the 2006 acceptance rates until we feel we have fairly up to date 2007 data.

[Moderator note:Anyone who finds specific data on a particular college's website or Common Data set: we would greatly appreciate your updating the list. Please annotate the source for your info and all readers will greatly appreciate it, I know.
