Hi everyone, I'm in my junior year looking at colleges. I was wondering which college is considered the hardest to get into in Oregon? Any help would be appreciated!
Based on competitiveness and selectivity, Reed College is widely considered the most difficult college to get into in Oregon. This liberal arts college in Portland is known for its rigorous academic expectations, unique teaching approach, and student-led honor code.
Please keep in mind that "hardest" to get into can mean different things for different people, based on their strengths, weaknesses, and holistic application components. In other words, while the acceptance rates can partially indicate a school's selectivity, they don't definitively measure whether or not that school would be difficult for you to get into specifically.
Best of luck as you navigate your college search and application process!
