[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Schools with a reputation for yield protection are not safeties, by definition. The problem with confusing some sort of great likelihood with a true safety here is that misleads other families into some poor kid getting shut out.[/quote] Show me a school with "yield protection" that has an acceptance rate above 50% (because a safety requires that). Most YP schools are Reaches (Think Tufts) or places like CWRU (whose acceptance rates make it a Target at best ) [/quote] Pretty sure there's an entire recent thread, maybe more than one, discussing whether VT yield protects. Rate 57%[/quote] Well if VT yield protects, it's for STEM majors/Eng/CS and those certainly do not have a 57% admission rate. They don't yield protect for open/easy to get into majors [/quote]
