For MSTP schools, once we get an interview, how do we find out the % of people who are accepted after?

Or to put in other words, schools disclose the # of people enrolled and interviewed each year, but what's the matriculation rate?

Specifically, for international-friendly schools such as Columbia, UPenn, UTSW, WashU, Northwestern, Vanderbilt, Emory?

My knee-jerk reaction is to say that it doesn't and shouldn't matter, because you knowing the matriculation rate has no effect on your chance of admission...but I know I wondered the same things when I was applying. A safe estimate for yield is between 25-40% at most MSTPs, I think. Significantly higher for two programs whose identities you can probably guess.
