Phase 1

The college reviews your academic profile to make sure that you are qualified. For applicants who don’t meet academic requirements, chances of acceptance drop significantly, regardless of their strength elsewhere.

Phase 2

Then college reviews the holistic parts of your application to choose from the students who made it past Phase 1.

How does the chancing calculator help me without counting in all the holistic factors?

You can use it as your baseline for building school lists, improving your profile, and coming up with application strategies.
