<p>Acceptance rate is now at 32%, last years acceptance rate was 29%. The average SAT score has gone up 10 points from 2022 to 2032. So although yield rate and sat scores have gone up a very small amount, a 3% acceptance rate is a bit more substantial. Will be interesting to see how this plays out when looking at more than just one year.</p>

<p>Interesting to note that graduate enrollment has decreased by 200 (about 5%).</p>
