What This Means for Your Application

• Maintain high grades: The reported high school GPA is remarkably narrow at 3.8 to 3.8, meaning almost all admitted students have excellent academic transcripts.
• Target competitive scores: Aim for an SAT score between 1210 and 1380 or an ACT composite between 27 and 32 to sit solidly in the middle.
• Highlight your interest: Only 14.1% of admitted students actually enroll, so clearly articulating your desire to attend could give your application a noticeable advantage.
• Plan for success: A strong 75.2% graduation rate and 85.2% first-year retention rate indicate that students who enroll typically thrive and finish their degrees.
