Among the listed schools with reported rates, the lowest historical acceptance rate is at University of Miami at 18.9% admitted; the highest is at St. Thomas University at 97.9%.

Florida's ten-year earnings benchmark of $48,082 sits 11% below the national median of reported school-level earnings in the reference group, not the median income of all college students.

Scores shown are among students who submitted them; "not considered" describes that historical cycle. SAT endpoints sum section percentiles and are not total-score percentiles or admission cutoffs. A dash means the measure is unavailable in this source, not zero. School profiles explain missing and withheld values.
