<p>How is this really relevant? And, even if you could get the overall figures, what would it tell you that would be interesting? The sample size of homeschooled kids admitted is so small, and the diversity of homeschooling experiences so great, that you just aren’t going to be able to tell much without tons of granular, private detail that you will never get access to. “Homeschooled” kids can include professional actors and musicians and Olympic athletes. I’ll bet that set of homeschoolers has a pretty high admission rate. Other kids were homeschooled because their parents believed that the schools in their area would fail to teach the literal truth of the Bible. That group is going to have a much lower admission rate. There are kids who have never gone to a conventional school, and kids who are being homeschooled in 12th grade after being kicked out of their prep school. And in the latter group, some were kicked out because of economic issues, some because of academic failure, and some because they were caught smoking dope.</p>
<p>So what difference does it make whether 1% or 10% of homeschoolers are admitted? It’s clear that there is no bar to admission of homeschoolers, but each kid admitted is going to have a story that turns on lots of factors besides being homeschooled.</p>
