[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Google UVA selectivity USNWR. it’s the percentage of applicants who get an offer. I believe it is now 23 percent. USNWR then takes that percentage and assign a category to it. For UVA that is “most selective”. [/quote] USNWR doesn't include acceptance rate any more. [/quote] But the other ranking services do AND readings on sites like this one constantly talk about “Oh X college is only 12 percent acceptance so your DC should do X, Y and Z and aim for a less prestigious school.[/quote] Acceptance rate can be a misleading indicator of selectivity because schools have used tactics to drive up the number of applicants, even if clearly unqualified, to drive down acceptance rates.[/quote]
