<p>In the specific case of the Air Force Academy as contrasted with the Military Academy and Naval Academy, I presume the Barrons definition of selectivity sets a cut-off line based on multiple criteria about the enrolled class (explained on page 239 of the [massive</a> 2007 edition of the Barrons guidebook](<a href=“http://www.amazon.com/Profiles-American-Colleges-CD-ROM-Barrons/dp/0764179039/]massive”>http://www.amazon.com/Profiles-American-Colleges-CD-ROM-Barrons/dp/0764179039/)), and some colleges must be just above that line, and some just below it. Each college gets to set its own admission criteria, and the Barrons guide simply reports a summary statistic for the enrolled class at each college.</p>
