    What Rocky Mountain College looks for

    • What is the acceptance rate at Rocky Mountain College?

    • Is Rocky Mountain College a reach, match, or safety for me?

      Compare your stats to the middle 50% above. If you are at or below the 25th percentile, treat Rocky Mountain College as a reach. If you are in the middle 50%, it is a match. Above the 75th percentile and the school accepts above 25% overall, it is closer to a safety. Selectivity below 20% should be treated as a reach for everyone, period.
