Olivet Nazarene University saw an increase in its acceptance rate to 66.9% for the application year 2023, with 2,961 out of 4,426 applicants accepted. This marks a notable rise from the previous year's acceptance rate of 57.7%, where 3,581 of 6,196 applicants were admitted.

Such changes indicate a shift in the applicant pool's competitiveness and the institution's evolving acceptance policies.
Wait List Acceptance Rate
Olivet Nazarene University's wait list acceptance rates are currently unavailable, as all key statistics for recent application years, including the number of students offered, accepted, and the acceptance rates for 2020 through 2022, have not been reported. This lack of data suggests a need for improved transparency regarding the wait list process. Consequently, prospective students should be aware that the current status of the wait list is uncertain and plan accordingly.
