Who Knew

I found this so fascinating. Who knew BYU was so popular, according to US News and World Report. BYU ranks #2 behind Harvard in popularity. US News says of the 74% of applicants who are accepted to BYU, 77% of them actually go. Harvard has an 8 percent acceptance rate with 79% attendance rate. Now BYU's rival did not do as well. The University of Utah, on the other hand, ranks #31 with an 82% acceptance rate and less than half actually attend (47%). So, what that tells me is that Utah is a safety net school. Anyway, it is quite interesting.
