Has anyone got any idea about the University of the South's acceptance rate? Got it on my list of potential colleges and I'm trying to gauge my odds of getting in. Thanks, pals!
The University of the South, also known as Sewanee, has a fairly competitive acceptance rate. As of the most recent data, it's around 35%. However, remember that acceptance rate can be a rather crude measure of a college's selectivity. A better measure for your odds of acceptance would be to see if your academic profile matches that of the typical admitted student at Sewanee. Look at their average SAT/ACT scores and GPA ranges in addition to the acceptance rate. And of course, they'll evaluate other factors like your essays, letters of recommendation, and extracurricular involvement. Ultimately, to gauge your chances, it's best to consider your whole portfolio in relation to Sewanee's usual admits.
