22,000 applicants and nobody is rejected? I think after some of the rhetoric dies down and people start posting their rejections we might have a better picture. How can you calculate a rejection rate if the numerator is zero?



Avardvark,

I don’t know what you are trying to say. I didn’t calculate anything. I just said WashU waitlists unusually much larger numbers than others. I also didn’t say they don’t reject anyone. That so few (it doesn’t really matter if it’s 0 or 1 or 2) people got rejected and bunch of people are waitlisted just “proves” my point. That we had zero rejection on CC only means our data is more skewed; but it’s so bad that you can turn around and say WashU’s data is no different from others. I am sure there will be SOME rejections posted here soon. This is no different from last year or the year before for WashU; it stood out while other schools boards had more normal distribution of rejects/waitlists/admits.
