Strategic Enrollment Strategy

About 7% of applicants admitted for the Class of 2020, this admissions rate to continue decreasing and the corresponding yield rate to continue increasing, with more admitted students opting to enroll at MIT rather than elsewhere. These two rates, plus several applications received, affects how many offers of admission MIT, can put out each year. There is only space for around 1,100 new first-year students each year, and there is no indication that MIT is planning to increase the class size. I don’t anticipate the number of total undergraduates rising to more than 4,500 in the next decade or two. There are plenty of rejected students who would make a great fit at MIT and would thrive and succeed but just didn’t cut at the very end.

New York University has an acceptance rate of 33%. The reason is that there are many applicants. NYU, although expensive, is excellent in specific fields (mainly, business and the performing arts). Excellent grades with intense coursework (e.g., Chemistry, Physics, Calculus, etc.), participation in activities, and a good SAT/ACT score will most likely get you in. It is hard to calculate the likelihood of acceptance because NYU, among other top-tiered schools like Brandeis, Boston U., and Georgetown, are highly sought-after universities, and competition for admission is fierce.

Harvard Business School has a strong proclivity to admit students who display enormous ‘passion’ or drive in whatever they do. The applicants who cut people from very diverse backgrounds, but the one thing that is common among them is their intense passion for their domain expertise. Applicants who display exemplary leadership inside and outside of their workspace are likely to get admitted.
