How to read these numbers

The 2024 rate covers Commonwealth University of Pennsylvania's whole applicant pool — early and regular applications counted together in one figure. It is not the rate of any single round.
990–1190 is the middle half of admitted scores, not a cutoff: a quarter of admitted students scored below 990, and a quarter scored above 1190.
The table above holds 3 reported years, 2022 through 2024. Across them Commonwealth University of Pennsylvania's rate ranged from 93.1% to 94.8%, 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.
