Yo! I'm planning for my college apps and I'm particularly interested in rigorous academic experiences. Right now, I'm curious - what is the most selective college in the US?
Hey! The most selective college in the United States is typically considered to be Stanford University due to its low acceptance rates. Admitted students generally have impeccable academic records and noteworthy extracurricular achievements. However, acceptance rates can fluctuate a bit year by year, and other highly selective institutions like Harvard, MIT, and the University of Chicago also consistently have very low acceptance rates. Just remember, while selectivity can be an indicator of academic rigor and prestige, finding the right fit for you is equally important!
