Well, barrons, in most cases the enrolled ranges tend to be lower rather than higher than the admitted ranges because a disproportionately higher number of students in the higher ranges tend to go to a higher ranked school. That’s why you’re seeing 26 as the lower range on the CDS but 27 as the lower number here. Maybe UW bucks the trend on the top range because top in state kids who also get into higher-ranked out of state schools decide in the end to “settle” on UW?
