Admitted students scored 1190–1330 on the SAT, with an ACT midpoint of 28. Bryant University admits 65% of applicants — moderately selective. 87% of first-year students return for a second year.
A quarter of admitted students scored below 1190 and a quarter above 1330. Being under the lower figure does not rule you out — it means the rest of the application has to carry more weight — and being above the upper one does not secure a place at a selective university. This intake sits inside a student body of about 3,194.

Admission data says nothing about what the degree costs or returns. Before accepting an offer, read the net price for your family's income and the earnings of previous graduates — a place at a selective university financed with heavy borrowing can be a worse outcome than a place at a less selective one that costs little.
