its not the safest, but I feel like its pretty middle of the road for post-ii acceptance rate. My understanding is that its around 40-50% did you think it was lower or higher/

i thought it was like 20-30% (sorry, i had been talking about OOS). but i also don't know how accurate that is

i also remember seeing it was overall ~ 20% last year, but I assume if you're IS it's going to be higher

what i rememeber and it could be wrong, is that they interviewed about 1000 and matriculated about 200, this would give you 20% but then you have to remember that not everyone who is offered accepts, so theyre likely at least sending out 300-400 acceptances a year (i have heard very few schools have a 50% yield rate but idk about the validity of that so im giving conservative numbers). this would put you in the 30-40% range.

Based on what I'm seeing on Admit and MSAR I would also guess it's right around 50%
