The Guilford College admissions Web site asks prospective students to “Take our Bulls-Eye survey to find out instantly if Guilford is really right for you.”
To judge the accuracy of this test, 25 current Guilford students and one faculty member took the survey for themselves, and compared their scores with their own opinions of Guilford.
These participants unanimously claimed that the best things prospective students can do to evaluate the school is to interact with members of the Guilford community.
“I visited all the colleges I applied to, which really helped me make my decision,” said sophomore Emma Graham. “There are a lot of people that I know who didn’t visit their colleges, and they’re disappointed with where they are.”

Here is what the score means:

|
Over 120 | You’ve hit the bulls-eye!
You and Guilford are made for each other. |
90-119 | Your search is on target!
Guilford clearly offers a number of qualities you are looking for in a college. Please plan a campus visit soon. |
70-89 | Guilford is still in your
sights. Your values may be a good match with Guilford. Check your answers closely. A good clue is the answer to question 11. Most Guilford students choose “10” |
0-69 | You’ve hit the wall!
Guilford is probably not the college that best suits your needs. We wish you the best in your college search. |
