Figures are the newest each college has published; years can differ between colleges. Each value's ⓘ shows its source and year. Why
Straight-line miles from the center of the ZIP code. Colleges without a reported location are hidden while this is set.
Our reading of each college's published figures, for all applicants; a public's in-state and out-of-state readings are on its profile.
Shows schools whose middle-50% range overlaps yours.
Each college's newest published policy, so cycles differ between colleges. Optional includes colleges that require scores of some applicants.
Estimated average paid by all first-years, including those without grants. Colleges without enough data are hidden while this is set.
20% or fewer of undergrads take a federal loan.
Filtering by where need-based aid ends is off for now: that figure is an estimate, and it isn't shown until we've checked it against colleges' own calculators.
Aid for students without financial need, from the college's own report or the federal proxy.
Show each college's price at a family income
Up to $110K it's the published average net price for students receiving federal aid; above it, the published data end.
Pell Grant recipients graduate within 5 points of students with no need-based federal aid (or more often). Colleges with under 30 students in either group are hidden while this is set.
Cost
Applications
Diversity
Selectivity
Over each college's last 10 years of federal data; cost after inflation. Colleges without enough history are hidden while a direction is set.
Mostly women or men: over 60% one or the other. Mostly full-time: 10% or fewer of undergrads study part-time.
At least 50% of first-years come from other states. Colleges that don't report it are hidden while this is set.
From each college's Common Data Set; colleges whose report we don't have yet are hidden while these are set.
Colleges awarding bachelor's degrees in the field, counting first majors. Colleges that don't report degrees by field are hidden while this is set.
Setting
Research
Designation
Carnegie's higher access, higher earnings class.
Online
Mostly online: more than half of undergraduates take every course online.
Groups of the affiliations colleges report to the federal government. Each profile shows the exact one.
Has a named community of this tradition, from a national organization's own list of its campus chapters.
From national directories and, where checked, the college's own pages — never the federal gender-identity counts, which we never rank, filter, or compare.
The national median is 13. Colleges that don't report it are hidden while this is set.
The national median is 67%. Colleges that don't report it are hidden while this is set.
Athletics
D-I without football is plain D-I. Tap a conference on a profile to see its members.
ROTC
Programs
Honors program: only the 183 colleges whose Common Data Set lists one can match.
Only the 124 colleges that publish these figures in their Common Data Set can match.
Of undergrad men in fraternities, or undergrad women in sororities (never summed). Only colleges whose Common Data Set reports either percentage can match.
From national organizations' own chapter lists, not the Common Data Set — most of these organizations aren't in the fraternity/sorority percentage above. A college with none listed may still have one; no directory covers every organization yet.
Only colleges whose Common Data Set answers this can match.
"Live on campus" is the strict rule: every full-time first-year, no exceptions. Many more colleges expect it with exceptions.
