Im in-state and although I realize they are private and I'm sure very difficult to get in to, I was just wondering what info ppl had? Thanks.

Wow and I was thinking no.Yale:
In-state: 10/164 = 6% matriculated
Out-of-state: 78/4096 = 1.9% matriculated
So, yes, apparently being a resident of CT increases your chances 3x of getting in. Of course, with only ~99 spots, odds weren't very high in the first place.

Always with the shocking data, TheRealMD.

CT residents are more likely to choose to matriculate at Yale, but that doesn't mean it's easier to get in.
Almost every school that officially does not treat in-state and out-of-state applicants differently has some bias towards in-state applicants (I think Brown's the main exception), and it's probably because if you are in-state you can get more relevant recommendations - i.e. ones the medical schools take more seriously. That's my guess at least.
Interesting.
I wonder how many of the CT residents are current Yale students.
