According to the AD the number is about 200 a year. Not every athlete is recruited.

Friend’s dd was accepted

No SAT submitted
No hook, not an URM
Amazing kid with stellar grades and ECs. Pored over the essays. Public school.

It’s beyond amazing.

Wow! 6.7% acceptance rate taking out athletes. Plus children of mega donors/well connected folks probably take some of those 526 spots. Seems silly for non-athletes to use their early application on Yale at this point.


I feel the same way. I am an alumni, and child will apply next year.
Not even sure it is worth it as a legacy (not a high donor), especially when it means giving up a chance for merit at other schools (some schools require you to apply early action to be considered for merit.)
