I’m considering applying to Millersville University but can’t seem to find reliable info on their acceptance rate. Can anyone fill me in on how competitive it is to get accepted?
Millersville University, located in Pennsylvania, is not particularly competitive in comparison to other higher-tier institutions. They have a high acceptance rate, typically around 86-92%. This means that for every 100 applicants, approximately 86 to 92 are typically admitted. However, remember that just because the acceptance rate is high, it doesn't mean admission is guaranteed.
It's crucial to meet their admission criteria which often includes a minimum cumulative high school GPA (usually around a 2.80) and decent standardized test scores (though note, they do offer a test-optional admission route), among others. Keep in mind, they will likely look at other factors as well, including your high school coursework, extracurricular activities, and essays (if required). It's advisable to reach out directly to the admissions office for the most accurate information. But in general, Millersville is more accessible than some more selective schools.
