<p>I think they are comparing different numbers. The Richmond Admissions page lists the numbers for “Admitted Students”
[Student</a> Profile - Undergraduate Admission - University of Richmond](<a href=“http://admissions.richmond.edu/studentprofile/academics.html]Student”>http://admissions.richmond.edu/studentprofile/academics.html)
while the Common Data Set is for “Enrolled Students”</p>
<p>Not all admitted students enroll. The best students are more likely to get accepted at more selective schools, and choose to attend the more selective school. So the averages for enrolled students are less than the averages for admitted students.</p>
