What are your chances of getting into University of St. Thomas?
The University of St. Thomas in St. Paul is Minnesota’s largest private university and has a distinctly close-knit, values-driven feel for a school of its size. It is known for a broad menu of more than 150 majors and minors across eight colleges and schools, with especially visible strengths in business, engineering, education, and pre-professional pathways, plus a strong Catholic intellectual tradition. The campus sits in a residential part of St. Paul near the Mississippi River and benefits from easy access to Minneapolis, so students can balance a traditional campus atmosphere with internships, arts, and city life. Class sizes are relatively small, and the academic culture tends to feel supportive and relationship-based rather than impersonal. Students who thrive here usually want solid academics, approachable professors, and a campus community that is active but not overwhelming. It should appeal most to applicants who like structure, involvement, and a practical path to internships and career outcomes.

Is this the most accurate college admissions calculator?+
Counselly's chances calculator runs on real, current admissions data, the actual admit rates and SAT/ACT ranges colleges report to the U.S. Department of Education, not averages scraped from forums. Our algorithm weighs your GPA, test scores, and extracurricular strength against each school's admitted-student profile the way an admissions reader would begin, which makes it one of the most reliable free tools for seeing where you'll get into college.
How does the calculator predict my chances of getting in?+
It compares your academic profile to each college's real admitted class. We look at where your GPA and test scores fall within a school's 25th to 75th percentile range, combine that with the school's overall admit rate, and factor in your extracurricular strength, then translate it into a clear percentage and a Safety, Match, or Reach label. Everything recalculates instantly as you add schools or adjust your stats.
What counts as a good chance of getting into a college?+
Roughly above 60% is a Safety, you're comfortably ahead of the typical admitted student. Around 30 to 60% is a Match, realistic and worth prioritizing. Below 30% is a Reach, still absolutely worth applying to if it's a dream school. The strongest college lists balance all three, and Counselly helps you build exactly that kind of list.
Which colleges can I check my admission chances for?+
Hundreds of US colleges and universities, from Ivy League schools to large public flagships to smaller private colleges. Just start typing, MIT, UCLA, NYU, Michigan, and pick from the suggestions.
