It’s an amazingly good deal for a small segment of the population and an extremely unattractive prospect for everyone else. In other words, if you’re applying to BYU, it’s probably your first choice.
Last year, BYU was #1.

You’re welcome. Is your alma mater on there?

Yield is enrollment divided by acceptances. Higher yield means those that apply are more likely to attend. It’s just another way to express acceptance rates.

I disagree. If you've got sources to back up what you're trying to add, and you're not trying to push some kind of agenda, then it's quite easy to add whatever content you want, even if other editors don't like your content for whatever reason. Wikipedia is about documenting knowledge, not righting great wrongs or painting your favorite politician in the best light possible.

Can't speak for other admins, but I have a real job. I'm also not a particularly active admin anymore.

I would guess number of offers of enrollment accepted vs number sent.
