ADMISSIONS Here at Millsaps, we encourage students to apply as “exploratory” students, because our Compass Curriculum intentionally provides breadth across academic disciplines and opportunities for real-world engagement before students have to declare a major. Plus, our faculty members serve as their mentors—professors want to teach at Millsaps precisely because they love working closely with our undergraduate students. The middle 50 percent of Millsaps students’ ACT and SAT scores is 23–29 and 1060–1230, respectively, and 87 percent have a high school GPA of 3.0 or higher.

FINANCIAL AID Millsaps offers two kinds of aid—scholarships based on academic merit and need-based grants for students whose families require assistance in meeting college costs. More than 80 percent of incoming students receive some type of aid from the College. Students who wish to be considered for need-based aid must submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by March 1.
