To clarify, I think withdrawn applications counted in the denominator when I was pulling data, but not the numerator. Additionally, I expect common reasons for withdrawal includes being funded elsewhere; I’d weakly guess that withdrawn applications are more likely than baseline to counterfactually be funded.

Thanks for clarifying! I’d been thinking they weren’t in the denominator.
(I also hadn’t been thinking about why someone might withdraw, and being funded elsewhere makes a lot of sense.)
