<p>Actually I managed to find this for Yale and they had it broken down by State for every year over the course of a decade or so. I compared New York and New Jersey with Utah and found that in fact even when corrected for the population difference, there are far more New Jersey and New York students who enroll at Yale as a percentage of the population. Some years there were as few as 1 or 2 students from the whole state of Utah. Idaho was not too different. </p>
<p>But what we do not know is:</p>
<p>a) How many applied to from Utah, NY and NJ.
b) How many accepted applicants from Utah, NY and NJ actually enrolled.</p>
