Interesting that Whitman did not have nearly as many Ivy acceptances as the other schools.

The data is supplied by the schools. Are public schools even allowed to share without permission?

Yes, it is not as if they give anyone's name or identifying information

looks like naviance data - as long as there is no student's names i think it should be fine.

How do high schools know about schools with declined acceptances? Obviously, they know what schools they sent final transcripts too, but how would a public school know if my kid got into Pitt and declined?

Reading is fundamental.

It says right in the intro that the data is self-reported by students.

If you kids updated their naviance (where he/she planned to attend), then they will show up on the data. It's all naviance and it's self reported.

These lists are useless because many qualified students don't apply to schools they cannot afford to attend.

That is so not true. Ivies and other top colleges give better financial aid packages then many average middle of the road-priced colleges.
