This data and analysis comes from Reddit user u/HYSLawHopeful, who graciously gave us permission to repost his great data on our blog.
HYSLawHopeful sought out to answer the question of what percentage of law school applicants actually ended up at a T14 law school for the Class of 2021 (2017-2018 admissions cycle). Last year, there were 56,900 total CAS registrants.
Note:
- EA = Enrollees from the Applicant Pool
- OE = Other first-year Enrollees
Yale:
164 (EA) + 40 (OE) = 204 students
204 / 56,900 = .36% of the applicant pool
Stanford:
165 (EA) + 15 (OE) = 180 students
180 / 56,900 = .32% of the applicant pool
Harvard:
484 (EA) + 82 (OE) = 566 students
566 / 56,900 = 1% of the applicant pool
Chicago:
184 (EA) + 9 (OE) = 193 students
193 / 56,900 = .34% of the applicant pool

395 (EA) + 17 (OE) = 412 students
412 / 56,900 = .72% of applicant pool

We also have actual attendee data from u/goldenbear2020.
Out of 38,390 total 2018 1Ls (from 509 data):
HYS = 950/38390 = 2.5%
T6 = 1980/38390 = 5.2%
T14 = 4482/38390 = 11.7%
