Ivy League Acceptance Rates - What to expect?

Hi everyone! So, I'm starting to gather information on the different Ivy League schools, and I'm curious about their acceptance rates. Can anyone here provide a rundown of the general acceptance rates for Ivy League universities in the US? Cheers!

Hello! It's great that you're looking into Ivy League schools. I can provide you with a general rundown of their acceptance rates, but keep in mind that these are approximate numbers and can vary slightly from year to year. Here are the acceptance rates for the eight Ivy League universities:

1. Brown University: About 5%

2. Columbia University: Around 4%

3. Cornell University: Approximately 7%

4. Dartmouth College: Around 6%

5. Harvard University: About 3%

6. University of Pennsylvania: Roughly 5%

7. Princeton University: Around 4%

8. Yale University: Approximately 4%

Remember, these numbers simply give you an idea of the competitiveness of the institutions, but it's essential to consider other factors like the fit of the school, academic programs, and campus culture to determine which college is the best match for you.

Additionally, acceptance rates can vary greatly between different programs within each university, and the applicant pool's strength can change from year to year. So, while these numbers give you a general idea of the selectivity of these schools, you shouldn't completely base your decision off of these.
