re: Yield. I have seen stats on other website suggesting that Wellesley has had 41 and 42% yields in the recent past. The yield I calculated (44.3%) would be significantly higher, and would be consistent with their statement above. They reduced their acceptance rate this year from (recently) 36 to 33.8 and their yield went up.</p>
<p>A possible consequence - a pretty significant decrease in acceptance rate next year, and possibly few to no transfers into the sophomore class.</p>
