Dartmouth College admits roughly 5 to 6 percent of applicants each year. Knowing how to get into Dartmouth means understanding that admitted students typically rank in the top 10% of their high school class, carry GPAs above 4.0, and score between 1450 and 1550 on the SAT or 32 to 35 on the ACT.
Those numbers are the baseline. What separates admitted students is how well they fit Dartmouth’s culture: intellectual curiosity, genuine interest in the D-Plan, and a real connection to what makes the school distinct from other Ivies.
