What Belmont University actually reads
Colleges publish which parts of an application they weigh. It is the most useful thing they say about admissions and almost nobody reads it, because knowing that an essay is very important here and class rank is not considered changes where the work should go.

The parts of an application this school weighs most heavily.
- Grades
- Course rigor
- Recommendations
Considered
Looked at, but not decisive on its own.
- Class rank
- Test scores
- Essay
- Legacy
- Work experience
From the federal IPEDS admissions survey, 2024. It records whether Belmont University considers each factor, but not how heavily, and it does not ask about extracurriculars, character, or demonstrated interest. Where a school publishes its Common Data Set we use that instead.
