From the USMA 2017 class profile:
Men / Women / Total / % Women
Applicant files started 12,283 / 3,125 / 15,408 / 20.2%
Nominated 3,461 / 705 / 4,166 / 16.9%
Qualified 1,818 / 347 / 2,165 / 16.0%
Admitted 1,002 / 188 / 1,190 / 15.8%
Numbers look pretty much in line to me.
Be careful what doors you open ... In the spirit of making everything “objectively fair” though – I can be persuaded that the XX applicants and the XY applicants should be held to the same Candidate Fitness Assessment in order to be considered qualified for admission.
The focus should be the number of female applicants and nomination for female applicants
Using the nubmers above,
for men, % of nominate from applied is 28.2%, % of qualifed from applied is 14.8%, % of admitted from applied is 8.2%
for women % of nominate from applied is 22.6%, % of qualifed from applied is 11.1%, % of admitted from applied is 6.0%.
for men, % of qualifie from nominate is 52.5%, % of admitted from nominated is 29.0%,
for women, % of nominate from applied is 49.2%, % of admitted from nominated is 26.7%
So it looks like it's tougher for female applicants.
However, when it comes down to where West Point has most control -qualified and admitted - the difference is less than 1%.
for men, % of admitted from qualified is 55.1%
for women,% of admitted from qualified is 54.2%
