Where will we fall to when 89% becomes pub knowledge?

Is that what it really is? I was expecting something closer to 96%.

Just plucked a number.  You are prob closer than I am.

Tier II is comfy.  Kinda like playing with a chip on your shoulder.  You get used to it.  Warm blanket, and stuff.

I imagine this would put goEMAW.com in the Tier 1 of message boards, no?

Guys, lying to US News is no big deal. Every other big time school in the country does it, too.

Let me be the first to welcome in all the Fortune 500 companies who will soon be relocating to MHK to draw on the skill and talent being farmed out of Kansas State University. Welcome, enjoy our city pool and Grand Mere. Oh yeah, also enjoy watching your company grow two fold from Q1 to Q2.  :thumbsup:

That could only have happened once, they must have sent that number out to everyone at once. Either that or whoever is sending those numbers in needs to be canned.

Other schools actually hire marketing and PR firms to help them increase their U.S. News rankings, so I am all for a "type-o" on the admissions percentages.   Albeit, as a watcher of these rankings for years, this is not the first time K-State has had such a low % for admissions.

I kinda wonder what the acceptance rate into the individual colleges are compared to the overall university entrance acceptance rate. I know the college of architecture is at about 50%.

You have a better chance of getting struck by lightning than you do getting rejected from Kansas State University.

We should all start thanking Bubba Brown, Devon Peterson, et al for not qualifying. Without them, our acceptance rate might actually be 100%.
