Application information

First-year

All undergraduate students applying to Millsaps need high school transcripts before an admission decision can be received. If unofficial documents are submitted, students can be provisionally admitted pending full review of official documents once received. Self-reported information is not considered when making an admission decision.

Transcripts can be submitted several ways:

  1. Electronically through the Common App, Slate.org, SEND.edu, Parchment, Scoir or Scribbles Software.
  2. As a hardcopy via the postal mail from the school.
  3. Direct upload into the student application portal.
All students, foreign and domestic, are eligible and considered for merit-based aid. All domestic students are encouraged to file and submit their Free Application for Student Aid (FAFSA) for consideration of additional need-based scholarships. 

There is no fee for the Millsaps application.

Additional information

At Millsaps, all admitted undergraduate students are considered for merit scholarships, and our net price calculator simplifies the process! Just enter your cumulative GPA and highest super-scored ACT (or SAT) score to estimate your merit scholarship award. Awards range from $18,000 to $34,000.

Your final award will be determined based on your application package. You may submit higher standardized test scores and request a re-review of their scholarship decision; the last testing dates considered for Millsaps’ scholarship review are the February ACT and/or March SAT.
