[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Top 25 schools according to that site, public schools look more reasonable: 3% or less Duke 4.83% UCLA 7.50% MIT 10.43% Rice 11.20% Emory 11.73% Caltech 12.00% Georgetown, Michigan 12.83% WashU 13.34% Berkeley 13.57% Carnegie Mellon 14.00% Johns Hopkins, Northwestern, Notre Dame 14.26% Columbia 15.00% Vanderbilt 15.03% Penn 15.54% Princeton 15.80% Dartmouth 19.80% Yale 21.00% Chicago, Harvard 21.58% Cornell 22.00% Brown 38.17% Stanford[/quote] I am the OP. The most shocking part of the podcast I remember was that statistics for disabled students were noticeably higher for universities located west of the Mississippi, and that when they subtracted the international student population, the percentage at many schools rose above 30%, and in some cases close to 40%. The list you provided seems to affirm that generally. Also, IIRC, they were only discussing learning-disabled and/or neurodivergent students, such as those with IEPs / 504s.[/quote]
