    About Stetson University

    Stetson University is a very small private university in DeLand, FL, in a city setting.

    What Stetson University looks for

    Stetson University admits the majority of applicants who meet its baseline academic profile. For most students applying here, the work is in writing applications that reflect real fit rather than treating the application as a checklist. Demonstrated interest matters more here than at the most selective schools. Visiting, attending an info session, and asking real questions of admissions all move the needle.

    Frequently asked

    • What SAT score do I need for Stetson University?

      Stetson University's middle 50% SAT range is 1060 to 1270. A score in or above that band keeps you in the conversation; below it, the rest of your application has to do more work.

    • What ACT score do I need for Stetson University?

      Middle 50% ACT range is 21 to 28. The top of that range or above is what most admitted students submit when they choose to send a score.

    • What is the acceptance rate at Stetson University?

      Stetson University admits roughly 72% of applicants. An acceptance rate above 40% means a strong application can land here without high-end stats.

    • What does Stetson University actually cost after financial aid?

      Average net cost (after institutional aid) is about $19,372 per year. Net cost varies enormously by family income; run the school's net price calculator for an estimate that reflects your situation.

    • Is Stetson University 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 Stetson University 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.
