[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In no world is it harder to get into large state school Univ. Mich than Georgetown?  You all are smoking crack.

Georgetown (7,300 undergrads) is MUCH more selective than UMich Ann Arbor (31,000 undergrads).

Georgetown REQUIRES test scores and requires ALL scores from everyone you took. It is not on the Common App. For 2022 the SAT average score was 1500. GU's acceptance rate is 15%

Michigan does not require test scores. It lists 1340 as the SAT score for usual admission. Michigan's acceptance rate is 26%

[b]Georgetown only ranks lower on this list precisely because it is not a common app school and requires test scores which precludes many of the kids that would have to submit their scores.[/b]

The rankings are all based on total number that apply vs accepted.  Schools not using common app get fewer applicants and those that require higher test scores in this test optional time get even fewer because kids with crappy scores won’t bother applying.  High stat kids get turned down more frequently because the Applicants applying there are all high stat.
This has no bearing on its rank. Did you or your kid go to Georgetown?[/quote][/quote]
