How to interpret the acceptance rate
At Huntington University, 75.6% of the reported applicant pool received admission, meaning that most applicants in that cycle were admitted. That figure is just below the median of 75.7% for comparable institutions (same type and size).
The reported result summarizes one applicant pool; it does not determine an individual admission decision.
What SAT and ACT scores do Huntington University students report?
Huntington University’s submitted-score ranges give applicants a picture of the academic profile among enrolled score submitters, rather than admission thresholds. Applicants should compare an SAT score with Huntington University’s 930 through 1,150 range, which covers the middle half of SAT scores submitted by enrolled students.
For ACT, the corresponding comparison is the university’s 18 through 26 range, describing the middle half of ACT scores submitted by enrolled students. They do not set minimum scores or forecast a particular admission decision; scores are one piece of the information available to applicants.
The ranges below describe enrolled students who submitted test scores at Huntington University. Use them as academic context, then check the university’s current testing policy for your application cycle.

About these student measures
The entering-student group includes part-time entrants as well as other attendance patterns.
Federal grant recipients and transfers both make up a noticeable part of the undergraduate mix at Huntington University. The private nonprofit university enrolls 1,082 undergraduates, and 27.4% receive Pell Grants, a federal grant-aid measure.
An estimated 23.2% of undergraduates entered as transfers or part-time students, so the campus includes people continuing coursework begun elsewhere alongside those starting there. This composition describes enrolled undergraduates rather than admission priorities or any applicant’s odds.
The figures point to an undergraduate population with both aid recipients and transfer entrants.
Huntington University shows stronger persistence and completion measures than its comparable-institution reference points, though Pell recipients finish at a lower rate than the overall cohort. Within the first-time full-time cohort, 63.6% complete within six years, compared with 54.9% at comparable institutions (same type and size).
The first-year retention rate for full-time bachelor’s-seeking entrants is 83.8%, versus a peer median of 74.2%. Pell recipients in the first-time full-time cohort have a six-year completion rate of 58.1%, below the overall rate by 5.5 percentage points.
Enrolled students can expect retention and overall completion figures that sit above the comparable-institution medians, alongside a lower Pell completion rate.
