[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC wanted the same size, and on the initial list were:

Lehigh
Santa Clara
University of Denver
Worchester Polytech
Villanova
Wake Forest
University of Rochester
William and Mary[/quote]

Most of these are not easy to get into. WF and Villanova have 32%/31% acceptance rates. Also, as spomeone who is from WORCESTER it pains me when people say Worchester. It is not even pronounced like there is an H in there. [/quote]

Wake had a 20 percent acceptance rate for 2026[/quote]

Wake doesn't have the highest stats, though.

[b]Perhaps, but there are other schools on here with stats that are generally higher, like William and Mary and Rochester[/b].[/quote]

Those three schools have almost identical SAT ranges[/quote]

W&M mid SAT 1520/1360 with 51% of enrolled students submitting. Wake mid 50 SAT is 1480/1380 with 23% submitting.   W&M ACT is 34/31 with 19% of enrolled students submitting.  ACT mid 50 is 33/30 with 32% submitting.  So I'd say W&M is a bit higher.

Rochester's CDS is messed up.  It appears the ACT score shows up in the SAT row and there are no SAT scores shown.  But it says only 22% submitted SAT and 7% ACT, so the scores aren't going to be very representative of enrolled students.[/quote]

Not sure SAT/ACT score comparison means much for Wake, as it really doesn’t not consider them much, having been test optional way before Covid.[/quote]

On what basis can we really tell how qualified the enrolled students are?[/quote]
