Admission Requirements for First-Year Applicants

When reviewing your application for admission, Albion considers the following general issues:

• High School GPA (The average GPA for our 2007 class was 3.56.)
• High school courses including AP and Honors level, the number of courses taken in each academic area, and grades received over the course your high school career
• Interest in Albion (Come spend the day with us and have a tour of campus, meet with faculty, and meet with your Admission Counselor.)
• SAT Scores - the average for 2007 was 1200.  SAT or ACT needs to be taken (not necessarily both.)
• ACT Scores - the average for 2007 was 25.
• Extra-curricular activities (What do you do outside of the classroom: athletics, drama, music, community service, clubs and organizations, etc.)
• Personal Essay (What you have to say about yourself, what you've accomplished and what your goals are.)
• Letter of Recommendation (What the people that know you best have to say about you.)
