Editor's notes

  • Know which admission route you're on. A 3.2 GPA in the college prep curriculum is the only route with no minimum ACT listed; at 2.5 you need a 16, and at 2.0 you need an 18. If you're close to a cutoff, one more ACT sitting is the cheapest fix available.
  • Apply early in the fall even though admission is rolling. Scholarship applications open Oct. 1 and are only for admitted students, so the sooner your partial transcript and scores are in, the sooner you can compete for money.
