<p>^ I don’t think in like 10 years the admission rate at Yale will be 1%!! That would be horrible, I think the two new residential buildings will add another 200- 300 students. I agree with featherso’four that the applicant numbers did peak last year and it should be going down. More and more people are applying to the ivy league because of AA, awesome financial aid, and …of course prestige that increased sharply with the US news rankings.</p>
