Hey peeps, I’ve been considering applying to Johnson and Wales, but I’m trying to understand their acceptance rate. Can anyone shed some light on this? It’d go a long way in easing my pre-application jitters.
Hello! Johnson and Wales University is generally known for its high acceptance rate. For the latest statistics, as of the 2024-2025 application cycle, the acceptance rate was approximately 86%. Of course, this rate can fluctuate a bit from year to year, but it's been fairly consistent.
Keep in mind that an acceptance rate does not necessarily predict your chances of getting in. Johnson & Wales, like most universities, will take a holistic look at your application materials, which means they'll consider factors such as your GPA, the rigor of your high school coursework, and your extracurricular involvement, in addition to other factors.
If you have other questions or need more clarification, feel free to ask! I hope this helps and I wish you the best as you prepare to submit your application.
