The numbers game reflects the frenzy of competitive admissions. The more applications, the lower the rate, unless a college grows enrollment to match rising demand. Some colleges seem to do everything they can to boost applications, which enables them to deny more applicants, making the school look more selective.
这场数字游戏反映了入学竞争的激烈程度。申请者越多,录取率越低,除非高校扩招来适应这日益上涨的需求。有些学校似乎想尽办法吸引申请者,这样他们就能够拒绝更多人,从而使得学校看起来更加抢手。
But the most prestigious schools don’t have to gin up demand. Their rising application totals simply reflect the perennial national and global power of their brands. Stanford drew 43,997 applicants this year, up from 42,497 the year before. Harvard’s total was 39,041, up from 37,307. Cornell led the eight Ivy League schools (which don’t include Stanford) in number of applications, with 44,966, up from 41,900.
但最著名的高校无需如此。这些高校逐年上升的申请人数仅仅印证了学校品牌在国内外多年的声誉和影响力。今年斯坦福收到了43997份申请,比去年的42497有所上升。哈佛从去年的37307上升至39041.康奈尔大学在八所常春藤联盟院校中(不包括斯坦福)收到的入学申请最多-44966份,比去年41900有所上升。
