Villanova Admissions Stats

<p>College Board SAT numbers are of enrolled students.These stats are usually buried in colleges web sites under Institutional Research as Common Data Set or Fact Books.
Most college admissions web site prominently display accepted students stats , not enrolled.
Many private schools do not even publish their Common data sets or enrolled student data.
You will find a wide disparity of Admit data vs Enrolled data at most schools , some colleges dont want you to find the details of the disparity.
Outside of Harvard , Swarthmore, MIT and the like , every school is someones safety.</p>

<p>For instance compare :
