I am applying to Ole Miss for the Fall 2016 semester, and I am confused about the application requirements. When I visited the school this past July, I remember the lady who led our information session mentioning something about some kind of essay, but I do not remember what she said. I went on UM’s website to start my application, and I got the whole way through without a single question pertaining to my academic history or anything of the such. I was prepared to send my transcripts, letters of recommendation, and type an essay, but nowhere on the application was an essay or letters of recommendation mentioned. Has anyone already gone through the application process at Ole Miss, or is currently going through it, that can help clarify whether or not I need an essay or letters of recommendation?
I remember learning that as long as an OOS student like myself has a gpa of at least 2.75 and an act score of at least 22, they are automatically accepted, so I would understand if you don’t need an essay or anything, but I want to be certain that I’m not missing anything. PLEASE HELP
