Odds by score band
Harvard University odds for a 4.5–5.0 weighted GPA and a 1500–1600 SAT
Competitive
A student with a weighted GPA of 4.5–5.0 and an SAT of 1500–1600 applying to Harvard University is in the Competitive range. Harvard University admits 4% of applicants, and the middle half of enrolled students submitted SAT scores of 1500 to 1580. At this band the estimate is about 6 in 100.
For this band, the estimate reads the middle of the band, a weighted GPA of 4.6 and an SAT of 1550, so a student's own numbers can land differently. It also weighs only the numbers; essays, activities and course rigor count too.
