Harvard newspaper doesn't want a 4th sorority

When I was applying, the Top 10% rule applied to all publics, not just UT and A+M. Did that change?

It does apply to all of them. However the vast majority of those who are able to get admitted that way want to go to UT and A&M. So there are a much smaller number of spots available at those schools for freshmen to be admitted under other criteria.

It's pretty common for people to assume it just applies to UT and A&M since those are the only schools that are really negatively affected by it.
