Different people have different ideas about what makes a "good" school. Admissions criteria, acceptance rate and average GPA are good indicators of how selective an institution is, but they don't tell you how happy or successful students are. However, there are a few good ways to get a better sense how satisfied students are and how well a school supports its student body.

It is moderately difficult to get into X. Around 81% of applicants get into X each year. Last year, 14,805 students applied to X and 12,024 were admitted.
Retention is the number of students that stay enrolled at a school over time. This is a way to get a sense of how satisfied students are with their school experience, and if they have the support necessary to succeed in college.

As of 2021, the total market value of the school endowment was $153.5 million. The average college endowment was $905 million in 2021. For each full-time student, X spends about $9,678 a year.
