Fordham University

While applying to countless colleges may sound like a surefire way to secure at least one spot, doing so can be both costly and time consuming. To help students select schools that offer the best academic fit, we have compiled admission statistics from more than 7,000 colleges and universities.

By familiarizing yourself with the average standardized test score and graduation rate of admitted applicants, you will be better prepared to gauge your chance of acceptance. Though you should not select potential schools based on academics alone, comparing your academic record to that of the average enrolled student can help you decide whether this college offers an academic environment that aligns with your needs. By narrowing your pool of applications to a few ambitious, realistic and safe options, you will be left with more time to perfect personal statements and more money to pay for tuition.
