[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have only vaguely heard of Green Mountain College. Looking it up now, I see its highly specialized in environmental studies. It looks charming and like a really thoughtful place to study, if that makes any sense. And OOS tuition is $35k. The only thing that would give me pause is the 66% acceptance rate. That is high and I have a mental ceiling of about 45% acceptance rate (UMD)and a preference for the 6-26% acceptance rate college choices. Yes, I base a huge amount of credibility in that statistic and don't adhere to the "there are many excellent colleges" cry- out because I don't believe that at all.[/quote] Walmart acceptance rate is below Harvard's at <3%. http://time.com/43750/walmart-acceptance-rate-lower-than-harvards/ These schools are mostly self selecting. Their acceptance rate tends to be high for this reason.[/quote]
