Bama also, just generally has more in state(some Out of state as well) students apply that are not as qualified for college at either of our programs
Yea, I think this is definitely part of it as well. Also, our lower end requirement on the ACT has jumped from 18 to 21 in the last 5-7 years. That is a large chunk of kids who used to get in but don't now, so my guess is those types still apply.
I also wouldn't be shocked if the first part of your post was true as well. They know that the argument against them on the recruiting trail will be "they are pumping up undergraduate enrollment, it is a diploma mill". Best way to counteract that is to say "well, if that was the case, why do we only have 55% admission?"
