Here is the response from Admissions: Enrollment management is a complex endeavor. BC’s predictive enrollment models are highly effective in using historical yield patterns to forecast future enrollments. As effective as these models typically are, historical data do not always perfectly forecast future decisions that admitted students will make. For example, the admission offers extended to the sophomore Class 2021 resulted in a larger number of students accepting our invitations than our models predicted. Enrollment Management quickly accounted for this change by updating the enrollment models for the Class of 2022 – and then enrolled the current freshman class almost exactly as the models forecast. What can we say? BC is a popular destination.
