[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry I'm new to this... can you explain what yield rate is and it's significance?[/quote] It’s the percent of students who are accepted who decide to attend. It’s an indicator of how much kids actually want to attend a school. In other words, if a student applies widely and gets accepted at five schools but can only attend one, the one they choose to attend is assumed to be their most preferred of their options. A school with both a low admit rate and a high yield is highly coveted by students because it’s both hard to get into and for those students who get accepted students actually want to attend (it’s not just another application).
