Schools Graduate School Application Statistics Site?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the desire for a comprehensive database that lists graduate schools alongside individual application details, including grades, GRE scores, demographics, and acceptance statuses. While some participants recall a similar resource for Harvard Law School, they note that such a list may be less useful for graduate programs where recommendations play a significant role in admissions. Existing resources include the Council of Graduate Schools, which publishes annual reports on enrollment and demographics, and the National Center for Education Statistics, offering a searchable database for comparing graduate programs. Individual universities also provide their admissions statistics online. However, participants emphasize that these statistics are only one part of the decision-making process, highlighting the importance of program fit, faculty interests, and financial aid when choosing where to apply.

A saw a site in a previous topic that listed grad school application reception dates and status, and was wondering:
Is there a site that has a list of grad schools, and lists individual applications and their grades/gre scores, sex and race and whether they were accepted or not?
I think something like this would be quite valuable, as it would actually give me a basis for my decision on where I need not apply.

Thanks if there is one, if not let's make it!

They had something like this for Harvard Law School - I recall - called "Grids". But law school admission decisions are highly dependent on GPA and LSAT scores.

Such a list for grad school would be close to useless since recommendations are dominant.
 


There are a few websites and resources that provide statistics and data on graduate school applications and admissions. One example is the Council of Graduate Schools, which publishes an annual report on graduate enrollment and degrees. This report includes data on demographics, admission rates, and test scores for graduate students in different fields and at different institutions.

Another resource is the National Center for Education Statistics, which has a searchable database of graduate programs and their admissions data. This can be helpful in comparing different programs and their acceptance rates.

Additionally, many individual universities and graduate schools publish their own admissions statistics on their websites. This can give you a better understanding of the specific applicant pool and admissions criteria for each program.

However, it is important to keep in mind that these statistics are just one aspect of the decision-making process for graduate school. Admissions decisions are based on a variety of factors and each applicant's experience may be unique. It is also important to consider factors such as program fit, faculty research interests, and financial aid opportunities when making a decision on where to apply. Good luck with your search!
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation.
