What the numbers say about Fisher

- The reported section midpoints are 590 Reading and Writing and 600 Math. Use the lower section as the first place to look for recoverable points in your own score split.
- The Scorecard snapshot reports a 66% acceptance rate. That rate describes a past applicant pool and should not be read as your personal admission probability.
- Reported outcomes include a 74% completion rate and $66,944 in median earnings 10 years after entry. Compare those figures with cost and program fit, not in isolation.
