    B) Of the qualified students, 54.4 % were waitlisted

    There are 1713 qualified students. Of them 267 were waitlisted. 267 is 15.6% of 1713, so 15.6% of the students were waitlisted

    C) Of the qualified students, 54.4% were accepted, 15.6 were waitlisted, and 30% were turned away due to lack of space

    54.4% of the students were accepted

    15.6% of the students were waitlisted

    514/1713 = 0.3

    30% of the students were turned away due to lack of space.

    This is the correct answer
