[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many good in state students apply to both William & Mary and UVA, and many of those are accepted to both.  William &
Mary’s in state yield for 22-23 was 34 percent and UVA’s was 57 percent.  It’s pretty obvious that more often than not William & Mary loses the in state battle to UVA.  [/quote]

UVA has something like 2.7X as many undergrads.  From that perspective, mathematically, it has to "win" the battle.  [/quote]

what does the size has anything to do in this mathematically?[/quote]

If the two schools are pulling from the same pool of in-state kids with roughly the same stats and UVA has about 2.7X as many seats to fill, UVA has to have the higher yield because it needs to get over 7 out of 10 of them.  [/quote]

At my HS, the kids that went to W&M were UVA rejects, which colors my opinion.[/quote]
My kid is out of state and has no interest in UVA only WM so that’s not always the case. [/quote]

The number of morons posting on DCUM is insane.  We have been talking about the yield of UVA versus William & Mary IN STATE.  obviously, the situation is different out of state.

Because both schools have such good reputations and are very good deals for in-state students, many in-state students apply to both. Yes, they are very different schools and offer very different experiences but that does not mean that in state students don’t apply to both. They absolutely do. Many of them.[/quote]
