Historical Acceptance Rates
Seattle University has maintained a consistent overall acceptance rate of approximately 28.6% to 28.8% over the past four application years. In 2024, the university received 15,868 applications and admitted 4,569 students, mirroring the 2023 figures of 14,800 applicants and 4,260 acceptances. Despite a slight decrease to 28.7% in 2022 from 28.8% in 2023, the overall trend shows stability in acceptance rates within this range since 2021, when the acceptance rate was 28.6% with 12,780 applicants. No data is available for years prior to 2021, but the current statistics indicate a strong applicant pool for Seattle University.
Wait List Acceptance Rate
Seattle University's wait list acceptance rates lack current data, as the offered, accepted, and acceptance rate statistics for the past five application years (2020-2024) remain unspecified. Without any numerical figures or trends, it is impossible to gauge changes or shifts in the wait list process over these years. Potential applicants should be aware of the uncertainty surrounding the wait list, as it appears to be an unpredictable aspect of the admissions cycle at Seattle University.
Transfer Acceptance Rate
Seattle University does not have a reported transfer acceptance rate for the application year 2024, with no data available on the number of applicants or accepted students. Historical data for 2023 is similarly lacking in specifics; however, the average GPA of transfer applicants stands at 3.44. This suggests that while exact figures are missing, the university continues to attract a competitive pool of transfer students.
