Predictive Chances and Scattergram display settings

Predictive Chances uses data from similar schools and student profiles to provide predicted outcomes. Scattergrams, however, focus specifically on your high school’s admissions trends, plotting past students' GPAs, test scores, and outcomes. Together, they offer insights to help students make informed college decisions. However, these tools are only guides and not guarantees of admission.

Here, you’ll learn how to customize the display settings so you can control how and when Predictive Chances and Scattergrams are shown to students and parents.

Only users with the Account Administrator role can adjust this setting.

To access these settings in your Scoir account, go to More (•••) in the left-hand navigation menu, select School Settings, and scroll down to the Admission Intelligence section.

Predictive Chances Settings

Display Predictive Chances to Students and Parents

Set when Predictive Chances become visible to students and parents. Use the Starting dropdown to choose the month, and the Of Class Year dropdown to choose the class year.

The Starting dropdown defaults to Never, which hides Predictive Chances entirely.

Example: Selecting August and Freshman year means Predictive Chances will appear at the start of freshman year.

Scattergram Settings

Display Scattergrams to Students and Parents

Set when Scattergrams will be visible to students and parents. Use the Starting dropdown to choose the month, and the Of Class Year dropdown to choose the class year. By default, Scattergrams become visible in August of Freshman year.

To hide Scattergrams completely, select Never in the Starting dropdown. Click Apply Changes to save your updates.

Example: If you select August and Freshman year, Scattergrams will appear starting in August of freshman year.

Tip: If you prefer not to show any scattergram data to students and parents, select May of Senior year. This will prevent scattergram data and predictive chances from displaying in the student or parent app

In addition, a
student will only be plotted as a data point on the scattergram if they have both a GPA and an ACT or SAT score in their profile. This may affect students without test scores who apply completely test-optional.
Date Minimums

This setting controls how many acceptances from a college are required before scattergram data becomes visible to students or parents. By default, the minimum is set to 5 acceptances.

Example: If you raise the minimum to 12, a college must have at least 12 acceptances from your school before its scattergram data will display for students and parents.

The scattergram will appear blank to students and parents if a college doesn't meet the threshold. However, counselors can always view scattergram data, regardless of the minimum..

Be sure to click the save icon to keep your changes.
Data History

This option determines how far back your scattergram data goes. By default, all class years are included.

If you select a specific class year, only acceptance data from that year onward will appear in scattergrams and any older data will be excluded.

To include all alumni data, simply leave this option with the default value.

Data Settings

Only Display alumni data (exclude current senior class) - This setting controls whether your current seniors are included in scattergram data. By default, it is set to Yes, which means seniors are excluded until after they graduate. Choose No to include seniors along with alumni in the scattergram data.

Include hooked applicants in student/parent view (no hook data shown) - This setting determines whether hooked applicants are included in scattergrams visible to students and parents. By default, it is set to No, which means hooked applicants are excluded. Choose Yes to include hooked applicants in scattergrams. These data points will appear as outliers, but no identifying details or information about the nature of the hook will be shown.
