I wanted to start a discussion regarding the prospects of both first year and transfer applicants to Brown for next year, based off this year's transfer applicant stats. Despite Brown's transfer webpage suggesting that they try to take 100-200 students each year, they've taken fewer than 80 this year and the acceptance rate decreased drastically (from ~9% to ~3%). Given this, as well as the many first-years getting off the waitlist (because of the first years who are now taking gap years and will be enrolling next fall), is it likely that overall acceptance rates will go down for both first-years and transfers for the 2021 admissions cycle?
