How We Get These Numbers

We use over 200 data points about you and your target college. Our unique algorithm takes many factors into account, including your grades and test scores, the academic rigor of your high school curriculum, your extracurricular activities, personal details, and just about everything else in your profile. We also consider numerous factors about the college, including the grades and scores of students who have been admitted in the past, the school's selectivity, the gender and ethnic makeup of the school, and others. We use data from multiple government and private sources, plus information provided by the schools themselves.

Don't ignore the width of the orange bar! For best results, make sure you fill out your Cappex profile accurately and completely. A very wide orange bar means that we don't have enough information to give you an accurate rating. (Make sure your entire profile is filled out, especially your test scores and GPA.) A very narrow orange bar means that the calculator has enough information, and our estimate of your chances of getting in is extremely reliable for the vast majority of cases. Of course there are always exceptions - the odds are never 100%, and we don't guarantee you will get into any college. You might look good on paper but be a jerk in real life! As well, your individual circumstances and qualifications may qualify you for admission in situations where someone of comparable standing will be rejected.

Use the Cappex calculator like you would any other source - as a tool to help you plan and prioritize your college search. College is an important decision, and you'd be nuts to rely solely on what a computer says. Always get advice from high school counselors, admissions representatives, parents and others in your college search - people who know you better than any computer can.

You may still not get in!

Even though your chances look good you may still get rejected from this college. Please keep the following in mind:

The program for which you're applying may require a tryout, audition or portfolio review during the admissions decision. If your tryout, audition or portfolio doesn't impress them you might get rejected.
Your intended area of study may be extremely competitive for this college. Even top students get rejected from colleges when lots of students are applying to a specific major.
Some highly selective colleges take a very holistic approach to admissions and you may not be the type of student they want to attract even if your grades and test scores are top notch.
Your application is incomplete or doesn't effectively communicate your qualifications. Everything from poorly written essays to sketchy recommendations can hurt your chances.
Some schools impose additional minimum entrance requirements, which are not considered by the calculator. For example: In addition to composite test scores, some schools impose mandatory minimums on sub scores as well. Although the calculator does consider sub scores in its analysis, it does not consider any mandatory minimums that might exist. Check the college's website for more details.
Economic factors during the 2008/2009 admissions season may have an impact. Many state-funded and other more-affordable schools are reporting a sharp increase in the number of applicants, which may result in rejections for some students who would have been easily admitted in past years. The calculator does not consider these economic factors.

Bottom line, no calculator can tell you definitively whether you'll get in - you'll only know if you actually apply. Always talk to others such as high school counselors, parents and admissions representatives before deciding whether to apply to a certain college.

SFA is for students who wants to be social or just sit in their dorm room playing video games. It's for students who care deeply about their grades because there is a whole system and a few dorms here that was created for your academic enrichment needs, AARC. It's for the people who's tired of the big city but not ready to go country yet, or vise versa. It's also a place where you can figure out where do you wanna be in five years. The atmosphere, the people, the beautiful trees and flowers, and campus draws in something for every kind of person. They have music concerts and plays if you're into fine arts or scavenger hunts and karaoke contests if you're looking for fun after studying one night. If you're looking for Greek life, there's plenty of that. The religious community is also active for there are Christian sororities and organizations on campus. You ever know what you'll find yourself into. read full review

At Stephen F. Austin State University the education that is offered is superb. The question is are you able to go the extra mile in order to give yourself the highest degree of education. The professors do their job in order to supply you with appropriate information in order to be successful. But if the homework is not done, or the appropriate study skills are not utilized then your pretty much out of luck unless your a genius. The school offers many services in order to help you out. For example the AARC (Academic Assistance and Resource Center) offers peer to peer tutoring, specified subject walk-in tables, and Sudent Instructor peer groups for specific classes. These services are free and on campus for easy access. The learning ability at this school is magnificent and every student should take advantage of the fact that the classes are small and the professors desire to help every student. read full review
