    What the numbers say about Ithaca College

    • The reported middle 50% spans 160 points, from 1230 to 1390. A planning score near or above 1430 gives you a target above that historical range, not an admission guarantee.
    • The Scorecard snapshot reports a 69% acceptance rate. That rate describes a past applicant pool and should not be read as your personal admission probability.
    • Reported outcomes include a 76% completion rate and $63,548 in median earnings 10 years after entry. Compare those figures with cost and program fit, not in isolation.
