Admissions Overview
Wheaton College has an acceptance rate of 88.43%, making it open admission for most applicants. This means nearly nine out of ten students who apply get in, so admission is not competitive from a numbers standpoint. The middle 50% of students score between 1250 and 1430 on the SAT, with an average of 1340. However, getting in is just the first step at this Christian liberal arts college. Wheaton looks for students who want to integrate their faith with rigorous academics and are ready for a campus where Christianity shapes both classroom discussions and daily life. The school values character and spiritual commitment alongside academic preparation.
