What is William Carey University COM (WCUCOM)'s acceptance rate?

William Carey University COM (WCUCOM) does not publish an acceptance rate, and neither does any free national source. Those sources publish applications and matriculants, not the number of offers a school made, so a rate cannot be calculated from them without inventing the missing number. What can be stated in 2024-2025 is that William Carey University COM (WCUCOM) received 3,243 applications for 175 seats in the entering class, which is 18.5 applications per seat.
