Odds by score band
Princeton University odds for a 3.5–3.7 unweighted GPA and a 1200–1290 SAT
Reach
A student with an unweighted GPA of 3.5–3.7 and an SAT of 1200–1290 applying to Princeton University is in the Reach range. Princeton 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 1 in 100.
For this band, the estimate reads the middle of the band, an unweighted GPA of 3.6 and an SAT of 1250, so a student's own numbers can land differently. It also weighs only the numbers; essays, activities and course rigor count too.
