How to read these numbers

The 2024 rate covers American College of the Building Arts's whole applicant pool — early and regular applications counted together in one figure. It is not the rate of any single round.
1130–1290 is the middle half of admitted scores, not a cutoff: a quarter of admitted students scored below 1130, and a quarter scored above 1290.
The table above holds 6 reported years, 2019 through 2024. Across them American College of the Building Arts's rate ranged from 44.4% to 96.4%, so any single year is one point inside that range.

Each figure above describes a class a school already admitted in a completed cycle. It is a record of who was admitted, not a measurement of any one application.
