[quote=Anonymous]Recruited athletes considerably inflate Williams and Amherst's ED rate. Pomona has a much smaller percent of varsity athletes overall- 20% vs almost 40% at those two- and also pairs with Pitzer (where lower stats athletes are told to apply); because of that, their ED rate of under 15% is consistently under most Ivies/universities offering ED. Putting it in mathematical form: Pomona gets around 60 ED recruited athletes each year. Williams about 170. Remove them from the ED pool, and you get non-athlete acceptance rates of: 68/545 at Williams: 12.4% 145/1546 at Pomona: 9.3% Which is much closer than the actual acceptance rates- 33% vs 12%- would make you think. And also much closer to the ED/EA acceptance rates at Ivies. [/quote]
