All Funding Possible From Ole Miss
*This is important for all future Ole Miss students, regardless of whether they end up committing to a special program like Flagship.
Academic Merit
Ole Miss calculates your Academic Merit and other automatic scholarship(s) based on any and all ACT or SAT scores they have on file. Our Admissions and Tuition page lists the most recent stats that we have, but you should always refer ultimately to the UM Financial Aid Scholarships page.
Have you taken the ACT?
Multiple Times?
Is your score above a 32?
If you have not already taken both exams multiple times, we encourage you to do so.
Have you taken the SAT?
Multiple Times?
Is your score above a 1430?
In the past, there have been students who were unable to afford UM tuition until they re-took the ACT or SAT and moved up in the UM automatic scholarship bracket. Some students’ SAT score might put them in a higher bracket than their ACT score (of vice versa).
Your Job:
1. Sign up for more test(s) this spring (through June test date)
2. Make sure that you the university has the highest of each
If you have any doubts about this, please check with the admissions office.
