What you need to get into Alvernia University
Aim to land inside or above the middle 50% range. A SAT around 1286 or an ACT around puts you in the top quarter of admitted students and makes Alvernia University a stronger bet. Below 1093, you are below the typical admit and the rest of your application, essays, rigor, and activities, has to carry more of the decision.
Is Alvernia University a reach, target, or safety for you?
Run your numbers through the calculator above and it will tell you. As a rule: if your stats sit above Alvernia University's range and it is not highly selective, it is a safety. If you are in range, it is a target. If you are below range, or the school admits fewer than one in four applicants, it is a reach for almost everyone. A smart college list balances all three, so pair Alvernia University with schools in each tier.
