Millsaps College is selective. If your GPA and scores land inside its admitted range, admission is realistic and the rest of your application makes the difference.
What you need to get into Millsaps College
Aim to land inside or above the middle 50% range. A SAT around 1150 or an ACT around 28 puts you in the top quarter of admitted students and makes Millsaps College a stronger bet. Below 1025, you are below the typical admit and the rest of your application, essays, rigor, and activities, has to carry more of the decision.
Is Millsaps College a reach, target, or safety for you?
Run your numbers through the calculator above and it will tell you. As a rule: if your stats sit above Millsaps College's range and it is not highly selective, it is a safety. If you are in range, it is a target. If you are below range, or the school admits fewer than one in four applicants, it is a reach for almost everyone. A smart college list balances all three, so pair Millsaps College with schools in each tier.
