<p>Okay, here are a few links with components of the information. The first is an article from BC’s web-site that states that their applications are up 12% this year to over 26,000. US News lists the undergraduate population at 9000 students.</p>

<p>The second is the number of applications that NYU received, over 35,000. NYU has a total student population of 17,000.</p>

<p>I couldn’t find numbers for this cycle for BU, Northeastern or USC but the number in the current US News for the class of 2008 were as follows:</p>

<p>BU - Applications - 28,240, Full time undergrads - 16,386
Northeastern - Applications - 24,436, Full time undergrads - 14,618
USC - Applications - 29,792, Full time undergrads - 16,474</p>

<p>As a matter of scale, UPenn has 9300+ undergrads and Cornell has over 13,000. The main difference between these schools and the ones listed in the Yale article is the yield rate.</p>
