Northwest University Acceptance

Does anyone know what the acceptance rate is for Northwest University? I'm trying to compile a balanced list of reach, match, and safety schools. Can I consider Northwest as a safety?

3 months ago

Northwest University, located in Kirkland, Washington, has an acceptance rate of around 93%, as of latest data. This is relatively high, suggesting that the school has less competitive admission standards compared to other institutions.

However, labeling a school as a "reach," "match," or "safety" isn't just about the acceptance rate, but also about how your personal academic profile aligns with the average student at that school. So, for example, if your GPA and any standardized test scores you might have fall within or above the average range for admitted students at Northwest University, you could potentially consider it a safety.

Remember to also take into consideration whether the school is a good fit for you in terms of the programs offered, campus environment, location, size, and other factors that might be important to you. A well-balanced college list includes not just a mix of reach, match, and safety schools, but also a variety of institutions where you would be happy to study.
