College Acceptance Rates

<p>acceptance rates are misleading and inaccurate</p>

<p>Those numbers are like 2 years old. I can guarentee a lot of those have changed since then. Acceptance rate aren’t very good for measure either…some schools have self-selecting pools which can be misleading.</p>

<p>also, does anyone know why the CUNY’s have such low rates? I’ve always wondered about this.</p>

<p>^ Probably because they don’t get a lot of out of state applicants.</p>

<p>Just like Univ. of Illinois at Chicago has a lower acceptance rate than Univ. of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Doesn’t mean that UIC is harder to get into, it’s just they get way less applications on the whole because it’s mostly only Illinois kids applying there. If that makes any sense…</p>

<p>Mississippi Valley State University’s requirements are:
3.2 GPA in the following: 4 units English; 3 units Math, Social Studies, Science; 2 units of electives, and 1/2 unit of computer technology. The rest is on a sliding scale: 2.5 GPA and/or class rank in top half combined with ACT score of 16; 2.0 GPA and ACT score of 18.

For them to have only a 24% acceptance rate says a lot about the students in that region.</p>
