Yield (college admissions)

Quality 0.00 · 8 views · Updated 1 month ago

Yield (also known as the yield rate or matriculation rate) is a statistic in college admissions that measures the percentage of applicants to an institution who, having been offered admission, accept the offer. It is calculated by dividing the number of students who enroll at an institution in a given year by the total number of admission offers sent. For example, an institution that makes 5,000 offers of admission in a particular year, but that enrolls 2,000 students that year, is said to have a yield of 40%. The yield rate is usually calculated once per year.
