Friday is by far the best day of the week, but today is even more special than usual. Why? Because CampusCompare has debuted the What Are My Chances? tool on its website.

With this nifty college admissions tool, you can plug in your GPA, test scores, class rank, and even activities and sports to find out your chances of getting accepted to the college or university of your choice.

Sounds pretty sweet, doesn’t it? See for yourself. Swing by our site and try out one school or 20 or 100. We guarantee that you’ll love seeing how well you’ll fare in the college admissions process.

Please keep in mind that while What Are My Chances? is a tool that produces realistic results, it should in no way be considered a guarantee of admission to any college. It is, however, an excellent chance for you to see how great or small your chances of acceptance will be for the schools on your wish list.

Have fun and be sure to let us know what you think!

Colleges are located in big cities, suburbs, and small towns throughout the country. Some enroll tens of thousands of students; others enroll only a few hundred. Some are public; others are private. Some private institutions are affiliated with religious institutions; others are not. Some schools enroll only women, others only men.
