STANFORD admits 2,430 applicants for Class of 2010

<p>The number admitted projects a 67.2% yield rate - down slightly from last year, assuming (1) a class size the same as last year’s 1,633, and (2) zero use of the waitlist. Last year, 13 students were admitted from the waitlist.</p>

<p>The story misstates some of the admit numbers from last year, overlooking the fact that waitlist admits are, in fact, additional admits. There were 2,426 admits last year, for an admit rate of just OVER 12%.</p>
