Dartmouth, Ivy League

Dartmouth College is a private Ivy League research university in Hanover, New Hampshire. Established in 1769 by Eleazar Wheelock, it is the ninth oldest institution of higher education. Before aid, Dartmouth costs $74,359. However, usually after support, it costs around $30,421. Its graduation rate is 94%, and the acceptance rate is 10%.

Dartmouth is initially known for being relatively conservative, emphasis on undergraduate education, small graduate programs, strong professional schools. For example, business, medical, engineering, and exceptional STEM undergraduate programs. Dartmouth is also best known for its focus on undergraduate students, despite the fact that Dartmouth is actually a university with plenty of graduate students. Everything is geared towards helping undergraduates find a good graduate program or a good job.

The 25th percentile New SAT score is 1420, and the 75th percentile SAT score is 1560. In other words, a 1420 places you below average, while a 1560 will move you up to an above-average position. There's not an absolute SAT requirement at Dartmouth, but they want to see at least a 1420 to have a chance at being considered

Dartmouth's educational quality places it among the top 20% best colleges and universities nationwide. The school's overall net price reflects that quality, earning it #628 as it's ranking on the Best Colleges for the Money list.

As a college, Dartmouth is also the smallest school in the Ivy League. It is known for its tight-knit community, which is why they take the "fit" component during the application process very seriously. The D-Plan: You probably cannot go through one conversation with a Dartmouth student without mention of the D-Plan. The Dartmouth Plan (or "D-Plan") is a unique and flexible calendar system which provides student with unparalleled opportunities to design an educational program that is most closely suited to their needs, interest, and aspirations.
