Most selective public colleges in the US?

Hey, folks! I'm keen on attending a top public college and am curious about which ones are the most selective in terms of acceptance rate? Any pointers would be appreciated!

Hello! There are several public universities in the U.S. that are known for their rigorous academics and low acceptance rates, i.e., they are highly selective.

1. The University of California, Berkeley, and the University of California, Los Angeles, are among the top public universities and have acceptance rates of around 11% and 9% respectively.

2. The University of Michigan–Ann Arbor, is another prestigious public university, with an acceptance rate of approximately 18%.

3. The University of Virginia, with an acceptance rate of around 19%, is also one of the most selective public colleges.

4. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the University of Florida, Gainesville are two southeastern public universities known for their selectivity, with acceptance rates of around 17% and 23% respectively.

5. University of Texas at Austin also has a pretty competitive acceptance rate of 31%.

6. The College of William and Mary in Virginia has an acceptance rate of around 33%.

7. The Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech), primarily a STEM-focused university, has an acceptance rate of approximately 17%.

Remember, selectivity does not always correlate with quality, so I'd suggest looking at these schools' specific strengths in your areas of interest rather than just their acceptance rates. These stats are estimations and can vary from year to year, but it gives you a general idea of the admissions landscape for these schools. Good luck with your applications!
