Does University of Dayton have Early Decision?
We hold no Early Decision figures for University of Dayton: its filing's early-admission breakdown is not in our records, so this page does not say whether it runs an Early Decision round. What it does report is an Early Action round (Common Data Set 2025-2026). Early Action is not binding. An Early Decision application is — you may hold exactly one, and accepting means withdrawing everywhere else.
Admitted SAT · middle 50% · College Scorecard 2024
1200–1380
Half of admitted students scored inside this range. It is the admitted band, not a minimum and not a cutoff, and it covers the whole entering class rather than the Early Decision round alone.
What families actually pay (AY 2023–24)
An Early Action offer is not binding, so applying early here does not end the option of comparing two aid offers. These are the published averages either way.
Average paid by students receiving federal aid, by family income (College Scorecard).
International students are not eligible for U.S. federal aid, so they are not in this cohort and typically pay closer to the sticker price.
