the hardest school to get into in America is now.... [View all]
Can you guess before looking below: 
The narrow new distinction, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune, was revealed in this year’s Almanac of Higher Education, put out annually by the Chronicle of Higher Education. The 128-page report outlines a plethora of stats and figures about colleges and universities nationwide, from admissions rates to student body growth to cost. The report found Caltech’s acceptance rate last year was a slim 2.7%, while Harvard came in at 3.2%.
On the public school side, the University of California system also landed prominently on the list of most selective institutions. To little surprise, UCLA and UC Berkeley nabbed the No. 1 and No. 2 slots for low admissions acceptance rates, with UC Irvine in Orange County landing at No. 7.
