Our Data Verification Pipeline (200% Accuracy Standard)

To ensure complete reliability, every university profile on this platform undergoes strict algorithmic and manual verification against two authoritative primary sources:

1 U.S. Department of Education NCES IPEDS

All Title IV higher education institutions in the United States are legally required to report undergraduate admissions figures to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). This guarantees that total applicant volume, admitted counts, gender breakdowns, and enrolled cohort counts are official federal records.

2 Institutional Common Data Set (CDS) Disclosures

The Common Data Set initiative is a collaborative effort between universities and publishers (College Board, Peterson's, U.S. News). Section C of each university's annual CDS report provides granular data on 25th, 50th, and 75th percentile SAT composite, SAT EBRW, SAT Math, and ACT scores, as well as high school GPA distributions and Early Decision admit statistics.

Why We Built This Open-Access Tool

Most prominent college counseling portals force students to register an account, supply personal contact details, or subscribe to commercial lead-generation funnels before showing admission calculations.

We believe that mathematical admissions clarity should be instant, free, and private. All calculations in our admissions engine execute client-side directly in your browser. No personal student records, test scores, or GPA entries are ever stored or transmitted to external servers.
