This link should take you to business week rankings. Click on the Full-Time tab, then click on your school of choice. In this case, Texas-Austin, and it should give you stats on percentage interviewed and the percentage of those admitted who interviewed.

a word of caution though - the site lists chicago's interview/acceptance rate at 100%. While I would love it if this were true - from what I understand it's more like 15-20%.

The only thing I'm very skeptical about in the business week information is this line under Emory's stats

Full-tuition scholarships school will award during the upcoming academic year:
68


68?!!! That can't be possible, can it?

That may be 34 each year...its possible at middle ranked schools. In an effort to improve standings they give tons of money to highly qualified people who would get into top schools in an effort to sway their decision.

I am trying to not even think about full-tuition scholarships right now. With the applications up this year again, it will be hard to be admitted, never mind the scholarship...
