Financial Aid

Do students receive financial aid?

There are three pieces of data in this table, which are designed to show how likely it is that an international student will receive any financial aid from the college or university.

"Undergrads receiving any aid" shows the percentage of first-time undergraduate students who receive any type of financial aid. However, many types of financial aid at US colleges and universities are not available to international students—like Pell Grants, Stafford loans and other federal loan programs.

The second piece of data, "Undergrads receiving school grants", shows the percentage of first-time undergraduate students that receive aid directly from the school—often this type of aid is available to international students.

"Average amount of school grant" shows the average amount that is provided in this category of aid, that may be available to international students.

Category Aid
Undergrads Receiving Any Aid 56%
Undergrads Receiving School Grant 51%
Average Amount of School Grant $10,623

Test Scores

What ACT or SAT scores do I need to get in?

Many colleges and universities in the US require either the SAT or the ACT, both standardized tests that help schools evaluate candidates.

In this chart, you can see how the middle portion of students admitted to the school fared on these tests—those from the 25th to the 75th percent of all accepted candidates. In other words, the chart does not show how the bottom 25% of all accepted candidates scored, and it does not show how the top 25% of all accepted candidates scored—but it shows how the middle half of candidates accepted to the school scored.

If you have taken the SAT or ACT, or you plan to, you can see where your score falls in comparison to this range, which will help you evaluate your likelihood of acceptance to this school.

Test 25th Percentile 75th Percentile
SAT Verbal 500 620
SAT Math 490 610
ACT Composite 22 26
ACT Math 20 26
ACT English 21 28
