Lots of different ways to twist this. Average ACT/SAT scores among those accepted and those who apply would be a better barometer. And does your school have an honors college which ups the anti considerably?

I suspect state population, sports popularity, and school capacity have more to do with these numbers than anything else. For example, UF's total enrollment is 52k compared to UK's 30k, yet the state of Florida has 5 times as many people. I'm not saying its the only factor, but I would be surprised if it wasn't the dominant factor in acceptance rates for public flagship universities.
I mean, it's not like any of these schools are intentionally bringing in fewer students. They have a strong incentive to bring in as many students as they can hold to maximize revenue.

Why do I get the feeling Ole Miss is lacking one of these honor colleges?
