OP indicated that RPI was less appreciated than Stevens. Perhaps that was based on the fact that RPI has a yield of only 20%, while Stevens’ yield is approaching double that at 35%.

Plenty of students apply to RPI. They just are not likely to attend. My guess is that the more that students looked at Rensselaer, the less they liked it. That was my experience.
