Admissions planning estimate

14.1% baseline · Low data confidence

Sensitivity range: 4.1%–24.1%. This is a modelling range, not a statistical confidence interval or a personal admission probability.

Stored headline rate, year/definition not independently confirmed in this refresh. Retained as a prior rather than applying an unsupported inflation multiplier. Historical IPEDS 2023 comparator: 13.93%; different cohorts are not mixed.

Reviewed 2026-10-01. Recommendations also use your grades, intended course, eligibility and available entrance cutoffs.

All / All Rounds: 13.9% (1,329/9,543; 2023). Fall 2023 first-time first-year applicants; historical, not 2026. Official source
