<p>To pick a nit: I believe around 30-35 STRIDES accept Smith’s offer every year. I suspect that the number offered is at least in the 40’s, since presumably not all STRIDES take the offer. A STRIDE may not <em>necessarily</em> be the designed Ivy-killer that a Zollman is but in general you’ve got to figure that STRIDEs are accepted to a pretty flashy group of colleges.</p>
