Ithaca College Acceptance Rates?

Hey guys, I've been eyeing Ithaca College for a bit now, and I'm curious - what's the acceptance rate there? I'm trying to gauge how competitive it is, and if I should consider it a reach or safety school for me.

The acceptance rate at Ithaca College has varied over the years, but for the 2023 admissions cycle, it was approximately 70%. This is relatively high for many colleges, which could suggest that Ithaca College might be a match or safety school for students with strong academic profiles. However, remember that an acceptance rate does not tell the whole story.

You also need to consider your own academic and extracurricular profile relative to Ithaca's average admitted student. So, even though the overall acceptance rate is 70%, it might be significantly different for you based on your specific circumstances. Always consider factors such as GPA, test scores, and extracurricular involvement in addition to the acceptance rate when determining the likelihood of your admission.

Additionally, the specific program you're applying to can also make a difference. Some programs may be more competitive than others within the same college. For example, the Roy H. Park School of Communications, one of Ithaca College's well-known colleges, may have a different admission rate relative to the overall college admission rate due to its reputation and the high number of applicants it attracts.

Whether a school is a reach, match, or safety ultimately depends on you. You can consider a school a safety if your academic qualifications exceed those of the typical admitted student. A match school is one where your qualifications roughly match those of the average admitted student, and a reach school is one where your qualifications fall below those of the average admitted student.
