What the data says about Presbyterian College

Comparative observations derived from this school's reported CDS values and from IPEDS / College Scorecard reference data. Every claim is grounded in a number — no editorial overlay.

01

Admit rate has tightened 5.8 percentage points over 5 reporting cycles.

Presbyterian College's admit rate fell from 71.0% (2021-2022) to 65.2% (2025-2026) — a 5.8 pp drop. Year-over-year: 71.0 → 59.4 → 72.3 → 68.4 → 65.2. A snapshot of the current year alone would hide this structural shift.

Methodology

The Common Data Set is a standardized reporting form U.S. colleges file annually — sections A through J covering admissions selectivity, enrollment, aid, faculty resources, and outcomes. CollegeNumbers extracts every value directly from each school's officially published CDS PDF, xlsx, docx, or HTML, then normalizes into a unified schema.

Federal data layers — College Scorecard, EADA athletics, Clery campus safety, FSA financial responsibility — are joined on top. Every value traces back to its primary source. All covered schools →
