    What the numbers say about SU

    • The reported middle 50% spans 140 points, from 1180 to 1320. A planning score near or above 1360 gives you a target above that historical range, not an admission guarantee.
    • The Scorecard snapshot reports a 87% acceptance rate. That rate describes a past applicant pool and should not be read as your personal admission probability.
    • Reported outcomes include a 68% completion rate and $61,515 in median earnings 10 years after entry. Compare those figures with cost and program fit, not in isolation.
