[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Colby gets twice as many applications as Bowdoin. Is that because Colby is so much more in demand or because it is a much better school? NOPE. It is because Colby doesn't have an application fee. No supplemental essays and test optional, too. Just hit send on your Common App. Makes it really, really easy for them to lower their acceptance rate. And while that won't push them up in the USNWR rankings anymore, there are plenty of people out there (and on here) that think acceptance rate is important. When we visited Colby a few years ago they could not stop talking about their 9% acceptance rate (they must have said it ten times and it was written on the whiteboard behind the AO presenting for the info session) as they pushed ED applications. I'm not saying it isn't a good school - it is. But they have played the game well![/quote] Here’s the earlier post re: bragging about acceptance rate.[/quote]
