Getting into NU just got tougher

<p>^ Yeah, but with a larger pool to pick from, they’ll have to pick a smaller percentage of the applicants. I agree that the overall applicant pool is probably not stronger, but it probably follows the same distribution as before and with a larger applicant pool, they can afford to reject applicants they would have accepted before. My only concern is that I don’t think alot of these applicants are genuinely interested in Northwestern, so there could be a lower enroll rate than in past years. Will be interesting to see how this plays out.</p>
