[quote=Anonymous]So much misinformation here. The short answer is no prestigious college is easy to get into. This year's acceptance rates aren't out on most of the recently cited schools. For example, Chicago hasn't posted numbers yet but anecdotally it was a bloodbath with tons of kids waitlisted. Last year's acceptance rate was a record low 7.8 percent, down from the previous year's record 8.4. All indications are it was even more selective this year. Northwestern's acceptance rate is below 11%. The only tip I can give for "easy" acceptance is to apply early as a full-pay student at small liberal arts colleges. Schools like Amherst, Williams and Middlebury have 40-50% accept rates in Early Decision. That's the best odds you're going to get anywhere in the "prestigious" admissions game.[/quote]
