I decided to stay in Dallas at that time, and I never for a second contemplated tcu, thought of it as a community college. People who think acceptance rates and yields are all alike have no clue unless you look at the applicant pool, and it's very different. We have much better stats, and those are facts. We are making progress, but we have a much longer way to go to bridge the gap vs. a Rice, and we don't compete with many of its applicants, similar to how tcu doesn't compete with us.
FWIW, this is a great promotional event.
I chose SMU over ND because it was in Dallas where I lived.
