Vossron, I think there’s a reason the finaid officer who pops up periodically on CC to offer legit clarification, has remained silent on this thread.

Anyone can suggest a hypothetical rating system and argue within its tenets. It’s selective reasoning- a legit philosophical exercise, but not necessarily of any real world value.

Swat’s web site includes it’s response to the common data set questionnaire for 2009-2010. 497 ED apps, 166 admitted. That’s 33% versus 17.4 overall. One can argue that 7 or 17 or 27 were borderline. And, that the bulk were rich kids with super GCs or athletes, URMs, legacies or development favors. But, we do not know.
