How Reach, Match, and Likely Are Defined
- ReachAcceptance below 25% or minimum GPA ≥ 3.5. Apply, but build a balanced list with Match and Likely options.
- MatchAcceptance 25–60% or minimum GPA 3.0–3.5. Realistic with a strong application.
- LikelyAcceptance above 60% or minimum GPA below 3.0. High probability of admission for qualified applicants.
- Rolling admissionContinuous rolling admission — qualified applicants are typically admitted within one start cycle.
When a program's editor-set tier is missing, the badge is derived from acceptance rate (primary) and GPA threshold (fallback) using the bands above. See our methodology for the full logic.
