How to interpret the acceptance rate

Admission at University of Wisconsin-Green Bay was 88.6%, meaning most applicants in the reported pool were admitted. That rate is above the median of 85.9% for comparable institutions (same type and size), so the school’s reported admission outcome sits somewhat higher than its peer reference point.

What SAT and ACT scores do University of Wisconsin-Green Bay students report?

For applicants considering score submission, the ACT results at University of Wisconsin-Green Bay offer a reference point rather than an admissions floor. Among enrolled students who submitted ACT scores, the middle half scored from 18 to 24; that span runs from the twenty-fifth to the seventy-fifth percentile of submitted scores.

The figures describe enrolled ACT submitters, not all applicants or every enrolled undergraduate. Because the range comes from recent enrolled submitters, it is a guide to that group’s scores, not a minimum required for admission.

About these student measures

The entering-student group includes part-time entrants as well as other attendance patterns.

Transfer entry is a notable part of the undergraduate mix at University of Wisconsin-Green Bay. The public university enrolls 6,341 undergraduates; an estimated 33.9% enter as transfers or part-time students, and 21.8% of undergraduates receive Pell Grants.

That composition suggests a campus serving both people continuing coursework begun elsewhere and undergraduates using federal grant aid. These figures describe who attends, rather than admission priorities or an individual applicant’s likelihood of admission.

Pell recipients in the first-time full-time cohort complete within six years at 55.3%, above the overall six-year graduation rate of 48.2% by 7.1 percentage points. That overall rate is below the peer median of 49.1% for comparable institutions (same type and size).

First-year retention is 65.9% for full-time bachelor’s-seeking first-year students returning, below the peer median of 73.7%. Enrolled students can expect these measures to describe the experiences of prior cohorts, rather than predict any individual path.

The higher completion rate for Pell recipients sits alongside retention and overall completion rates that trail comparable institutions.
