What’s it take to be an Ole Miss Rebel?

As a Mississippi applicant, you will be evaluated based on the following:

• The submission of an application (the University’s application or the Common Application); and
• completing the required units of the Mississippi College Preparatory Curriculum (CPC) ; and
• high school cumulative unweighted grade point average; and
• an ACT or SAT score if provided.*

As a Nonresident applicant, you will be evaluated based on the above criteria in addition to:

• Either an ACT or SAT score
  • Optional for nonresident students with 3.2 unweighted cumulative GPA or higher
  • Strongly recommended for nonresident students with less than a 3.2 unweighted cumulative GPA; and

  Nonresident students are encouraged to apply early, as admission is granted on a competitive, rolling basis until the university reaches capacity. It is suggested that students apply and submit required documents no later than February 1 of their senior year, for priority consideration.

  The university will accept super scores (highest subject tests from ACT/SAT when scores from multiple test dates are submitted) for admission. Subject test scores must be from the same exam type (ACT or SAT) to create a super score.
