[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is it possible since there aren’t more applications [/quote] This may be dated information. Not sure if this is still happening. Several years ago I was on an alumni committee for a SLAC. They were changing admissions metrics in order to rise higher in college rankings. As a result of the changes, students who chose the school as a safety were less likely to get in, even if they were more qualified, than applicants who wanted the school as a top pick[/quote]
