How many slots for the class of 2017 are left?
We understand the 1200 is the projected class size, and the MAPS candidates would be an addition.
:
I was told by an RC that they were looking at 1100 plus but he thought that they would end up at 1150-2000 due to very high acceptance rates. However, with the budget cuts this number could be lowered at any moment.
Perhaps you meant, 1150-1200?
My understanding is that the class size would be 1200 and no more. Of course, it could end up lower, but I think they are carefully controlling the offers so as to not exceed 1200.
I will not post my detailed analysis - just say that there are about 200-250 slots remaining. I understand that about 50 will go out this week.
Rough numbers.
Class size - 1200 max - maybe a few less.
About 900-950 offers have been sent-out. About 800 will accept. Another 200 slots to the Prep School. That leaves about 150-200 more slots. Some of those will go to people high on the NWL. Others will go to people lower on the NWL to "fill-out" the class. This is Code for selecting minority people in various categories to meet "targets".
