<p>Bird, you are a transfer applicant, right? In that case…while I don’t want to say that it is totally irrelavant the number of students accepted into CAP (it is relevant insofar as understanding the size of the program), but you are NOT a FRESHMAN APPLICANT and thus are not truly vying for one of the 64 slots in the way that freshmen applicants are doing. You are a TRANSFER APPLICANT and they take fewer transfers than freshmen. Also, they have to leave room for students in other studios who want to do their upper studio years in CAP (by audition). So, you are not vying for the same slots as a freshman really. You are vying for a transfer slot. I truly don’t now how many TRANSFERS they accept. Even if you must start in the first year of studio, but get soph standing at the university, you are still a transfer applicant, which is not the same as someone applying as a freshman.</p>
<p>Also, even if you were a freshman applicant, don’t be fooled by the NUMBER they accept. It is about acceptance RATES. I think the acceptance rate into CAP is likely around 6%, which is very low.</p>
