What University of Oregon 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

Not considered

- Legacy
From the federal IPEDS admissions survey, 2024. It records whether University of Oregon 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.
