Drew University Admissions

Drew University is less selective with a 72.66% acceptance rate, meaning most qualified applicants gain admission. The middle 50% of admitted students score between 1120-1340 on the SAT, with an average of 1230. This puts typical admits in the solid-to-strong academic range but not at top levels. The 84.47% retention rate suggests students generally find what they're looking for once enrolled. Drew seeks creative, intellectually curious students who thrive in small classroom settings. The university particularly values applicants interested in theater arts, given its well-known drama program that has produced alumni like Martin Scorsese. Students who want close faculty mentorship and collaborative learning in a wooded campus environment tend to flourish here.
