It’s funny Emory displays stats of admitted students in its class profile page instead of enrolled so as to inflate its perceived selectivity, something no other school does.

Right, it’s unfortunate that they inflated the scores on their website

Yes, why would anyone be interested in top 25 (but not top 5 or whatever) schools? What dumps. For morons and losers.

God, so many posters on this board are just insufferable.

Michigan's waitlist movement was insane. I wonder if their financial problems have hurt them?

I know a bunch public school kids with straight As who are still on it. Michigan always favors private school kids when they go to the waitlist. At ours they went down to a 3.6.

They are looking for kids who will take the offer without deliberation and pay the $80k/year.

No undergrad school is worth that. Period.

Well, no. But they are a relative bargain compared to the privilege of being amongst the masses at Michigan for 85k…

They use the waitlist as an enrollment management tool, even moreover when they have difficulty predicting yield and possibly accepted fewer in EA and RD to prevent overenrolling. It doesn't news to be a sign of issues.

Enrollment management consultants often fail. Bag algorithms.
