[Carl Weathers]

The acceptance rate in US World News - Is the acceptance number based only on people that get accepted directly after the interview or does it include people eventually called off the waitllist? Thanks.

Yup, this has been asked couple of times (once by me), and we've come to the conclusion it includes everyone. I assume # "initial acceptances" is somewhere around # of seats in the class.. with the # being greater the lower tiered the school...
