Hilbert College Admissions

Hilbert College has open admission with a 95.49% acceptance rate. Nearly everyone who applies gets in, making this one of the most accessible private colleges in New York. The school doesn't publish SAT or ACT ranges because standardized test scores aren't the primary factor in admissions decisions. A 63.06% retention rate suggests the real challenge comes after enrollment rather than getting accepted. Hilbert seeks students interested in hands-on learning, particularly those drawn to criminal justice and forensic science programs. The college values students who want small class sizes with a 15:1 student-faculty ratio and appreciate a supportive Catholic environment focused on practical career preparation.
