Peabody does have a higher acceptance rate, though I feel it’s mostly due to self-selection; people applying to Peabody often have a very specific interest and passion, and their applications/resumes are more likely to be a match with the school.

For example, the acceptance rate in the College of Engineering is also higher than A&S, but the average test scores are higher in Engineering. The higher acceptance rate isn’t because it’s easier to get in, but because the Engineering applicants tend to be better suited for that school.
