Well I was reading the SGU website and found that there was TONS of detailed stats, that I found encouraging to the school. All of the stats that I get from Saba are given here and there, and don't seem to have a specific location. I read on the application package that it accepts 75 out of 450 applicants. This 1/6 acceptance rate seems a bit more competitive than I had thought. I figured maybe it means that if you put 3 semesters on your application, that means you applied 3 times? Therefore 75/150?
It seems that upon reading this site, sooooo many people get accepted with very few rejections. Also, when they put you on hold it claims over 90% match rates for the last few years, which I also find very difficult to believe because the average US school is only around 93. This would put Saba at a slightly lower than average US school, when in reality, I would expect only a handful (if that) would have lower match rates.
Is anyone else concerned by this? I know that it's probably not far off, but it often seems to good to be true. I mean, if they're matching at 90-91% every year, why even go to the US? lol. Let me know what you guys think.
