Admission to MSOE's undergraduate programs are based upon:
High school background
See below for specifics based on degree program*.
Cumulative grade
point average
Minimum cumulative GPA is 2.5 for a student's application to
be reviewed for admission.
Composite
standardized test score
Minimum composite standardized test score of 20 (ACT) and
940 (SAT - critical reading and math only) for a student's application to be
reviewed for admission. MSOE does not currently require the writing portion of
either the ACT or SAT.
A student meeting these requirements is not guaranteed admission. Each student is assessed individually. High school classes, cumulative GPA and composite standardized test scores all play a part in the admission decision.
