How the class gets assembled.
This school does not report an Early Decision lane, so the flow collapses to the school-reported applicant, admit, and enrolled totals.
Each column is scaled within that stage. Labels show exact counts.

| Path | Applicants | Admitted | Admit rate | Class seats | Note |

81% joined after being offered a spot. 3% of students who joined were admitted. 3% of applicants were offered the wait list.
