Students should keep a wider safety margin when including this college on their preference list and avoid placing it as their sole target in any rank band.

Later rounds significantly widen the entry window here. The closing rank relaxed by 77,793 ranks (45%) between Round 1 and Round 2 in 2025. If you missed the Round 1 cutoff by up to 54,455 ranks, keep this college on your preference list for subsequent rounds.
