Carleton College accepts about 20.4% of applicants. A strong profile has a genuine shot, but you'll want your application to stand out beyond grades and scores alone.
Admitted students typically score between 1450 and 1560 on the SAT, or 32–34 on the ACT. Falling below that range doesn’t disqualify you — it means the rest of your application needs to carry more weight.
The number that actually matters isn’t this school’s average — it’s how your specific application measures up. That’s what IvyscoreAI tells you.
