<p>Yes - 28% for Wesleyan (2009). Now, that being said, Tufts received almost 15,400 applications. So, It could select from a larger pool, most of whom were highly qualified. Both school’s applicant pools are largely self-selecting (the UChicago situation). Don’t worry, the thread wasn’t about Tufts and Wesleyan; Wesleyan is a excellent school, and the two schools IMO compliment each other well. I believe that, like Tufts, Wesleyan (among others) deserves more national notariety for its superb offerings. I was just a little surprised by wmalum06’s comments, which are completely off the mark.</p>
