What stands out at San Francisco Bay University
Two things San Francisco Bay University published, ranked by how much each could change what you actually do, not by how impressive it looks. Every one describes a class that has already enrolled.
The admit rate rose from 25% to 69% between fall 2019 and fall 2023.
Both ends are measured rates for classes that have already enrolled: a rate that moved, not a forecast. The fall 2023 figure is the one at the top of this page.

0% of the enrolled class sent an SAT.
Most of the enrolled class sent no SAT, so any score range would describe that share of it, not the class. Another 0% sent an ACT. San Francisco Bay University files test scores under “considered”.
