The Vanderbilt situation is no mystery. They have about the same number of undergraduate students as Stanford does. However Vanderbilt has a higher turnover. Their acceptance rate for transfers is much higher than Stanford's.
2022: 16.6% acceptance rate, 471 students accepted out of 2,833 applicants.
2021: 17.6% acceptance rate, 430 students accepted out of 2,450 applicants.
2024: 330 students accepted.
This of course doesn't solve Stanford's problem but highlights the difference in the two school's ability to use the transfers as a "normal, reliable" means to plug holes in our football team.
So Stanford is shooting themselves in the foot…got it.
