On gameday, LSU is certainly the hardest to get into. Horrible traffic.

Millsaps definitely requires higher than a 19 on your ACT.

Poorly researched article.




Tennessee: Vanderbilt University

Via Wikimedia Commons
Acceptance rate: 13.1%




Rhodes College has a total enrollment of ~2000 people.

I'd think their rejection % is much higher than Vandy's.

It's really too bad they they don't move it out of Jackson.


Yea being in Jackson isn’t ideal but the campus is pretty much gated off from the rest of the city.

Rhodes has a 54% acceptance rate. Sewanee's is even lower than Rhodes.

No Williams College, no care.

Augustana won the DII Natty in college hoops a couple of years ago. They were stacked.

If my SO graduated from "the hardest school to get into in Illinois", why does she do so many dumb things all the time?

would have thought MIT was tougher to get into


One of my son’s friends just got rejected by MIT. She scored a 36 on the ACT...twice. She’s asian, so maybe that counted against her.

Another of his friends who is Blasian scored a 34. Tried to get into Stanford and a few others, but the best he got into was Rice, which was 5th on his list.

15 years ago Ole Miss and Bama were where you would goto if you didn’t get TOPS and Southeastern, ULL were not an option.

Nice. That's a great school in a not so great neighborhood.

Is she one of those really book smart people who is a little bit oblivious to the world around her?

I think bama has raised their standards a bit since then because of national exposure.

It tells you that the average person who applies there is a dipshit.

I meant ole miss. I knew a few people that went to bama and they're all successful. But they were going to be successful anywhere really.
