These 8 US colleges are more selective than some Ivy League schools

Ivy League admissions decisions were released last month, and thousands of hopeful high school students were rejected by their dream schools.

Although the Ivies are notoriously tough to get into - their acceptance rates range from 5.2% to 13.96% - you might be surprised to learn other schools have even lower acceptance rates.

Business Insider listed some schools that are even more selective than some of the Ivies, according to statistics provided on the class of 2020* admission rates from school websites or admissions offices directly.

*US Military Academy and US Naval Academy figures are based on the class of 2019 figures as decisions for the class of 2020 are not yet complete.
