    What the numbers say about Eckerd College

    • The reported middle 50% spans 170 points, from 1160 to 1330. A planning score near or above 1370 gives you a target above that historical range, not an admission guarantee.
    • The Scorecard snapshot reports a 76% acceptance rate. That rate describes a past applicant pool and should not be read as your personal admission probability.
    • Reported outcomes include a 66% completion rate and $51,819 in median earnings 10 years after entry. Compare those figures with cost and program fit, not in isolation.
