<p>I suppose the Common Data Set Initiative has standardized definitions for what it reports. I’ll post some comparable pages for some other colleges, chosen on no particular basis. </p>

<p>There are, of course, other bases for comparing colleges besides base acceptance rate. Acceptance rate and test score range of enrolled students and high school rank of enrolled students are all issues to consider when putting together a college llst that includes at least one “sure-bet” college. </p>
<p>For what it’s worth, I think very highly of the University of Chicago and of all alumni of Chicago that I know personally. I will talk to my children about their college application lists as they reach the appropriate age–very soon for my oldest son. It’s up to my children to decide where to apply.</p>
