Frequently asked questions
How many Idaho colleges are in the MajorAtlas College Finder?+
6 colleges in Idaho are currently listed. It's a curated starting set, not every college in the state, so a school's absence doesn't mean anything about its quality.
Which Idaho colleges are the most accessible?+
Boise State University, Brigham Young University-Idaho, Idaho State University, Northwest Nazarene University, and University of Idaho are in our Accessible tier, which usually admits the large majority of applicants who meet eligibility requirements. Still confirm that your intended major is offered and not capped.
Are these exact admission odds for Idaho colleges?+
No. Tiers are broad bands based on reported acceptance rates, which change every cycle and differ by major. For a specific school's current numbers, use its Common Data Set; our guide "How to Build Your Own College List by Score and GPA" explains how.
Tiers and "known for" tags are general guidance compiled from public sources and may be out of date. Confirm details with each school.
