How to read these numbers

The 2025 rate covers Indiana University-Bloomington's whole applicant pool — early and regular applications counted together in one figure. It is not the rate of any single round.
1170–1400 is the middle half of admitted scores, not a cutoff: a quarter of admitted students scored below 1170, and a quarter scored above 1400.
The table above holds 13 reported years, 2013 through 2025. Across them Indiana University-Bloomington's rate ranged from 72.2% to 85.0%, 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.
