@not a robot - my understanding is Naviance data is for the university as a whole, and does not drill down to acceptance data for colleges/majors within a university - for those U’s that admit directly into a college. If that’s not the case with the Naviance data, ignore my comments.

Directly from VT - data on 2016 entering freshmen in CoE
25% GPA - 3.97 75% GPA 4.35

25% SAT - R 572 75% R 670
25% SAT M 650 75% M 730
25% SAT W 560 75% W 650

What they don’t show is any differences between OOS and in state acceptances. Would love to see that.

Not to be a downer but SAT wise you’re between 50-75% and < 25% for u/w GPA. So not a safety but not a dream either. My son didn’t get into CoE several years ago in spite of having > 75% GPA and right at 75% SAT. The reason he was denied (he asked) was a C in calc 1st semester freshman year - which was a teacher error. There are so many qualified students that it often comes down to something a small as a semester grade… My rec would be to apply but don’t put in safety category. And expect to be full pay. Good luck
