Admissions

Acceptance rate

Applicants
1,450
Yield rate
7.9%

An acceptance rate of 76% puts Rosemont College on the accessible end — a realistic target for a broad range of applicants. Only 1,450 students applied, so treat these rates as directional — small pools swing sharply between cycles. Yield is low at 8%, so most admitted students do not end up enrolling.

Test score bands (middle 50% of submitters)

These bands describe the enrolled first-years who submitted a score, not the entering class. Where most students apply test-optional the submitters are a self-selected, higher-scoring group.

Academics

Full-time retention
82%
Transfer-out rate
18%
Student:faculty
12:1

Completion is middling: 57% finish inside six years. Retention is strong at 82%, and first-year attrition is where most degrees are lost. Retention and completion are close, which places the gap between entering and finishing almost entirely in year one. A 18% transfer-out rate accounts for part of that gap: those students left for another institution rather than dropping out, and the graduation rate above counts them as non-completers here. Part-time students fare worse, returning at 50% — relevant if you plan to work while enrolled.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 479 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Students pay an average of $20,994 annually once grants are applied. The income table below is the number that matters — $10,124 at $0–30k versus $30,670 at $110k+. 83% of students receive grant aid, averaging $13,037 — common but not automatic. Most students borrow — 71% take federal loans to cover the gap.

Entering first-year students

A different, smaller group than the rates above: full-time students in their first year of college anywhere. The grant series here also excludes the "other sources" counted in the all-undergraduate figure, so the two are not comparable.

The same students as the headline above, limited to those who received Title IV federal aid — a narrower group, with a lower overall average. IPEDS publishes no combined figure across these bands, so they should not be averaged into one.
