Hey folks! I'm planning to apply to Washington University in St. Louis (WashU) and was wondering if anyone had any idea about their acceptance rate for recent classes. I just want to get a general sense of how competitive it is to get in. Thanks!
Hey there! In recent years, WashU has become quite competitive, with its acceptance rate being 12% for the Class of 2027. That being said, it's essential to look beyond the acceptance rate when determining the likelihood of being admitted. Many factors contribute to the competitiveness of the university, such as the strength of students' profiles and the quality of their extracurricular activities, among other factors. However, keep in mind that an institution's acceptance rate can fluctuate year-to-year, and a strong application always improves your chances. Good luck with your application!
