The following statistics give a general picture of the freshman and transfer applicants and admits
for Fall 2007. We caution you against too narrow an interpretation of this data. We are
providing it because we are often asked to evaluate an applicant’s chances of admission based on certain
criteria. To make such a judgment without reading an entire application is impossible, but the
following information may prove useful to you. Bear in mind both that an applicant in the top of one
group may not be in the same position on another measure and that the rigor of academic programs
varies considerably among schools. Statistics below are based on the most recent 2006 information for those
students for whom we had such information.

While Stanford accepts both the ACT and the SAT Reasoning Test, we did not provide data for ACT test results here, as the number of applicants submitting ACT scores is not statistically significant.
