Ivy League admissions decisions were released tonight and, according to the New York Times, acceptance rates were lower this year than last.
Of course, we well know that while Ivy League colleges may have brand recognition, they're far from the only option. But that doesn't stop us from being curious about their admission statistics.
As of March 28, the NYT reported the acceptance rates as:
Brown - 9.16%
Columbia - 6.89%
Cornell - 15.15%
Harvard - 5.79%
Princeton - 7.29%
U Penn - 12.10%
Yale - 6.72%
Last year we were able to find some statistics specifically for international students. We'll keep an ear out for them this year as well.
