Rocky Mountain College acceptance rate and your odds of getting in

Rocky Mountain College is a private college in Montana that admits most qualified applicants (around 70%), which puts it in the moderately selective range.

1,471 students applied to Rocky Mountain College for fall 2023; 1,072 were admitted (72.9%). 211 enrolled. Only about 20% of admitted students enrolled, so the school admits several students for every seat it expects to fill, which is why its acceptance rate reads higher than its selectivity feels. Rocky Mountain College enrolls about 840 undergraduates in total, 45% of them women, with a student-to-faculty ratio of 14 to 1.

Admitted students at Rocky Mountain College post SAT scores of 893 to 1133 in the middle 50%, with an average of 1083. On the ACT the middle 50% runs from 18 to 24. A score above 1133 puts you in the top quarter of admits and turns the test into an asset; a score below 893 puts you in the bottom quarter, where the rest of the application has to carry more weight. Rocky Mountain College is test-optional: scores are considered if you submit them but not required. Send a score at or above the middle of the admitted range; otherwise apply without one and let your transcript lead.

Acceptance rate, application counts, admitted test ranges, cost, and outcomes reflect publicly reported federal data (U.S. Department of Education: IPEDS 2023 and the College Scorecard) and each school's Common Data Set; figures are rounded and lag the current cycle by one to two years, so confirm deadlines and policies on the school's own site. The typical-admit GPA and SAT are CollegeCalcAI's modeled estimates. Estimates from CollegeCalcAI are a planning tool computed by a fixed, transparent model, not a guarantee of any admission decision.
