Not really. Overall, even though there is a higher “acceptance rate,” there was also a MUCH higher matriculation rate. Furthermore, the quality of the average accepted student, aka the avg. gpa, SAT/ACT score and rank of each matriculating student is much higher than in years past. BC is not looking to expand its class size for a VERY LONG time, so it makes sense that they want to reserve space for people who truly want to go to BC from the start.
