Stanford lost my respect

1. After HP eliminated the early program. Almost all the elite colleges (keeping early program) saw significant increase in their early applicant pools except Stanford.

</p>

<p>You mean, elite colleges on the East Coast / Midwest.</p>

<p>

From the accepted/rejected list, Stanford’s process is much more “random”.

</p>

<p>So, since you can’t predict what Stanford will do, you say it’s protecting its yield?</p>

<p>

Based on these facts, I believe they played yield protection game.

</p>

<p>So, now Stanford is more interested in enrolling the most students it can, rather than the strongest students it can? That point alone is absurd and makes your whole argument look nonsensical.</p>

<p>FWIW, just look at those accepted to Stanford – a large number of them were accepted to elite privates like HYPM.</p>
