How the acceptance rate is worked out
642 offers of admission ÷ 3,887 completed applications = 16.5%
We divide offers by completed applications rather than reprinting a rate. The 509 report states 16.52%, which agrees with the division above. The rate counts every completed application, including applicants who never became competitive, so it is a measure of volume as much as of standards.
