Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Mississippi

<p>I am a junior in high school right now and I live in Tennessee. </p>

<p>My top colleges right now are:
University of Tennessee
University of Alabama
University of Mississippi</p>

<p>My grades are:
3.0 weighted GPA
2.9 unweighted GPA
20 ACT
1470 SAT</p>

<p>I'm having trouble with the ACT and my scores don't seem to be good enough for UT and Bama. Now it's down to Mississippi.</p>

<p>So far what do you all think? Will I get accepted?</p>

<p>Hi bigmike17. Because you are a junior you have time to raise your ACT with some prep! If you start now you can take the ACT and SAT at the end of May/early June.</p>

<p>From my understanding, these schools admit the higher scores first, then later take lower scores. So you may not hear immediately, but I bet you will end up getting admitted to some of the schools you listed. </p>

<p>You may want to add Auburn to your list. I know 2 students with comparable stats and both were admitted to Auburn.</p>

<p>Also, doesn’t UT super-score the ACT (takes highest sub-score from each test over time)? I read that somewhere: <a href=“http://admissions.utk.edu/apply/requirements/”>http://admissions.utk.edu/apply/requirements/&lt;/a&gt; There is a LOT to be said for paying in-state tuition. Do not give up on your in-state option! Good luck!</p>

<p>You need to ask your parents how much they’ll pay each year. they may be fine with paying all the OOS costs…or they may not be.</p>

<p>do you qualify for HOPE in Tenn? </p>

<p>ask your parents how much they’ll pay.</p>

<p>Well if I go to the university of Alabama my parents will most likely retire and move to Mobile so I should get in state tuition after the first year. With Mississippi the out of state tuition isn’t extremely bad like other schools. I thinks it’s around 17k</p>

<p>Alabama - High Match
Ole Miss - You’ll get in.
UTennessee - Reach</p>

<p>@bigmike17‌ As I think was mentioned, keep working on your test scores to maximize your options. Also, Ole Miss’ non-resident admissions will be increasing in the coming years. So, check out this site to see the updates. <a href=“http://admissions.olemiss.edu/applying-to-ole-miss/freshmen/”>http://admissions.olemiss.edu/applying-to-ole-miss/freshmen/&lt;/a&gt; </p>
