Hey, I'm currently prepping for ACT and am hoping to apply to Ole Miss. Can anyone share what the average ACT score for admitted students is? I'm trying to gauge where my scores need to be to be competitive for admission.
Sure, as per the most recent data, the average ACT score for freshman admitted to the University of Mississippi, often known as Ole Miss, ranges from 21 to 29. This represents the middle 50% of admitted students, meaning that 25% of students score below that range and 25% score above it.
This score is considered competitive for Ole Miss. However, remember that landing in or above this range certainly doesn’t guarantee admission but it gives adequate competitive strength on the testing front of your application. Also, take into account other factors of your application such as GPA, extracurriculars, and personal essays, as they are equally as important in the decision process. Good luck with your ACT prep!
