[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really don’t understand the Colby thing. I know three kids there now who didn’t get into schools with higher acceptance rates (Middlebury, BC and Brown). But maybe the key is that the kids I know are all full pay?[/quote] Colby is need-aware, has no application fee, and no supplemental essay, so lots of kids just tick that box off to apply using the common app. It’s also one of the few colleges that doesn’t make public its common data set. They’re playing games—but acceptance rate has a much lower weight in USNews than it used to, so they’re where they belong in the ranking. [/quote] But yet Colby’s yield rate is quite high….[/quote]
