However, Auburn has pivoted, two years in a row now, to reporting only Early Action numbers. It’s clearly a deliberate PR move and it’s worked. A school with a historical average of 80% acceptance rate has now convinced the nation that they’re difficult to get into.

You are clueless. Auburn regularly reports final admission results. I posted these numbers several times but you always ignore my posts for a reason.

Btw, this phenomenon happened to other schools in the past. The main reason is the introduction of the common app and Auburn just joined recently.
You can even find research papers on this. It’s simple math: Common App leads to more applications which leads to lower acceptance rates.
