<p>The yield rate for RD-only is the more telling figure. I’m glad they report it. The ED yield rate is 100% (or, if I recall correctly, very close to that because two ED admits could not accept for financial reasons). Of those that have a choice to attend or not, over 1/4 choose Bowdoin. That’s a fact worth knowing. Of those who are accepted, including those who are accepted and are contractually obligated to attend, 43% “choose” to attend Bowdoin. That’s just nonsensical information. From there, to begin making any sense of it, you need to know more about the number of ED admits. And the number of RD admits. And then reconcile the information with the 43% figure…pretty much all to get to the 28.6% number.</p>
