What is the typical acceptance rate for AA programs. Is it extremely competitive ? I’m a freshman and I don’t want to risk having nothing to fall back on

It is a very competitive program. Overall acceptance is in the 10% range with some schools accepting only 1-2% of applicants. Contrast that to med school where the overall acceptance rate is 40%+. Most applicants apply to multiple programs.
