College Admissions Calculator
Type a college, enter your GPA and SAT or ACT score, and we'll estimate your odds using the school's published acceptance rate and standard concordance tables.
Estimate your admission chances
Based on a logistic model of GPA and SAT/ACT vs. the school's overall acceptance rate. This is a directional estimate, not a guarantee — essays, recommendations, rigor of curriculum, extracurriculars, and institutional priorities materially affect outcomes.
How this calculator works
We start from the college's overall acceptance rate, then adjust up or down based on where your GPA and test score sit on national distributions of admitted students. Strong numbers raise your odds well above the baseline; weaker numbers lower them. ACT scores are converted to SAT-equivalent using the College Board / ACT concordance.
What it can't see
Admission officers read essays, recommendations, course rigor, demonstrated interest, legacy and recruited-athlete status, and institutional needs. No calculator can model those. Use this as a starting point for building a balanced list of likely, target, and reach schools.
