    What the numbers say about Rivier University

    • The reported middle 50% spans 120 points, from 1060 to 1180. A planning score near or above 1220 gives you a target above that historical range, not an admission guarantee.
    • The Scorecard snapshot reports a 83% acceptance rate. That rate describes a past applicant pool and should not be read as your personal admission probability.
    • Reported outcomes include a 52% completion rate and $52,248 in median earnings 10 years after entry. Compare those figures with cost and program fit, not in isolation.
