Hey guys! So I've been thinking about Bridgewater State University, it's one of my safety schools. I'd really like to know the acceptance rate, just to have an idea of my chances. Can anyone here share some info or their personal experiences? Thanks!
Hi there! You're smart thinking about safety, target, and reach schools—it's a good strategy to ensure you secure a college seat. As for Bridgewater State University, the acceptance rate is 88% (as of 2024). This means that for every 100 students who applied, 88 students were admitted, making BSU a largely accessible school.
While an acceptance rate gives you a general idea about a school's selectivity, remember that the strength of your academic profile—your grades, course rigor, test scores—also matters alongside your extracurricular involvement and personal qualities as demonstrated in your application. You might want to consider consulting the admitted students' profile or average GPA for more detailed insights.
Your experiences and achievements will play a crucial role, too. So, focus on what makes you stand out—the unique qualities or experiences that you can bring to BSU's campus. Best of luck with your application!
