[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of these posters insisting that the huge drop that Wake, Wash U and Tulane had in the rankings isn’t going to turn off applicants are kidding themselves.  It was their high rankings that led to so many applications in recent years in the first place.  Get real. [/quote]

Can anyone think of a precedent? Ideally with ballpark similar starting points and drops in ranking. Also, ideally not due to not sending data to USNWR.

I see strong opinions going both ways, so would be interesting to have some empirical evidence. I guess we're about to see, unless perhaps schools start adjusting admissions or whatever to improve.   [/quote]

The only school that I can remember plummeting like this is Oberlin and they seem to still be getting the kind of students that they've always gotten [/quote]

They plummeted again this year.[/quote]

Oberlin without question isn’t getting the same students it’s
gotten a decade ago.  Certainly not the same as a decade ago.  [/quote]
