The rate of Ivy League admissions in 2019 still displays the present college selection process’s supreme level of competition. Yet, there is some piece of evidence suggesting a decrease in competition.

Among the Ivy League institutions, Harvard University registered a 3.59% acceptance rate for the Class of 2028 through the year 2024, which is the highest acceptance rate in 4 years in its admission of students to the student-run Crimson newspaper.

This thus shows a decrease over last year's 3.41% admissions to the incoming Class of 2027 and 3.19% admission rate, which was a record low the previous year.

Although the slight rise in several students admitted to Harvard touched the yearly record, all the visited universities continued to attract potential students. Yale University just found out that they have achieved its lowest selection yield, which is 3.7%, which is the lowest ever.

“Currently, there’s an absolute peak in demand for the top 50 most distinguishable universities,” says Hafeez Lakhani, the Founder of Lakhani Coaching. “The demand for these kinds of universities, where people feel a life-changing and comprehensive studying experience is waiting, has never been that high.”

The acceptance rate for the Class of 2028, according to the student-run paper Brown Daily Herald, reached the third-lowest at 5.2 percent, equivalent to the one at Harvard University in the Class of 2024. The most selective among the Ivy Leagues, Cooper Union accepted only 3.85% of students in 2012 who arrayed, compared to the 2011 percent of 3.9%, stated the Columbia Daily Spectator.
