3.41%. 3.98%. 3.89%.
No, these percentages don’t describe the likelihood of winning the lottery or being hit by lightning in different parts of the country under specific weather conditions.

On Sunday, April 23 at 7:00 pm PST we’re sitting down with Yamilet Medina López, Assistant Dean of Admission for Diversity Outreach and External Relations at Stanford University – we hope you can join us.
Our goal is to bring you into Stanford’s admissions office to ask your questions, and our hope is that families everywhere will walk away knowing:
- How admissions processes differ at highly selective institutions
- What we can learn about post-pandemic initiatives and trends
- The future of highly selective admissions.
It’s an unprecedented time, in admissions and in the country – a time of drastic, rapid change (for more on that, read our blog on the State of College Admissions). And with so many strong students out there and admissions rates plummeting on so many campuses, it can be hard to understand what students need to do when old fashioned hard work is no longer enough to reliably gain admission to many colleges across the company.
