Not Your “Average Joe” Mid-range ACT: 26-31 Pictured here is our new class of freshman Miners. Our mascot is Joe Miner but our students are definitely not “your average Joe”!. We have 57 National Merit scholars on campus and continue to have nearly 25% of our incoming Missouri freshmen who are Bright Flight scholars. Part of our mission is to serve high need students: over 25% of our students are Pell eligible and we had nearly 1700 students eligible for the Missouri ACCESS need-based scholarship. Our freshman class is once again very talented: our mid-range ACT is 26-31….that means that one half of our students fall in that range but remember ½ do not! This is NOT our ACT requirement and we do accept students below and above that range ….our average ACT increased again this year, to a 27.8 and the average GPA is 3.75. Our students continue to bring in a large amount of transfer credit….encourage them to go to our Registrar’s website for a “Course Equivalency” database listing how courses transfer. 57 National Merit Scholars* 1,014 Bright Flight Scholars* 1,671 Access Missouri Scholars* 850 Curator’s Scholars* Mid-range ACT: 26-31 Average ACT: 27.9 Average high school GPA: 3.80 Average transfer credits: 14 hours * Total of ALL students at S&T
