Wagner College Admissions

Wagner College is less selective with a 68.54% acceptance rate, meaning most qualified applicants gain admission. The middle 50% of accepted students score between 1090-1290 on the SAT, with an average of 1190. This places Wagner in reach for students with solid but not strong test scores. The college attracts students who want a small liberal arts experience with big-city access. Wagner seeks well-rounded applicants who value close faculty relationships and hands-on learning opportunities. The school particularly appeals to students interested in theater, business, and pre-professional programs who want to study on a scenic campus overlooking New York Harbor while maintaining easy access to Manhattan's internships and cultural offerings.
