College Report Cards: Selectivity

There is no one-size-fits-all in education. Noodle's College Report Card will allow you to decide what your needs are and compare colleges by those metrics. We aggregate a wide variety of data sources to provide the most complete portrait of every college. We aim to be neutral, choosing sources with high coverage and precision that offer raw data rather than sources that assign subjective weights to certain measures. That’s because we don’t believe Noodle should tell you how important something should be to you. We believe that you should decide.

These schools score highest on our measure of selectivity.
