The School of the Art Institute of Chicago had an overall acceptance rate of 76.4% for the application year 2023, accepting 5,069 out of 6,633 applicants. This marked a slight decline from the 79% acceptance rate in 2022, where 4,797 of the 6,075 applicants were admitted. Notably, there are no data available for early action acceptance rates in both years, and the regular decision acceptance rate remains consistent with the overall figures. The acceptance rate trend indicates a subtle decrease in competitiveness over the two years.
