The most important consideration for determining eligibility for freshman admissions at Augusta University is the Freshman IndexFI. The FI is determined by the following formula(s):
Applicants who achieve at least a 2240 FI score and who meet the minimum high school course requirements and test score requirements will automatically be offered admission. Applicants who meet the minimum high school course requirements but have less than a 2240 FI score may be offered a place in our summer bridge program but their applications will be reviewed on an individual basis.
Per the guidelines provided by the University System of Georgia, when calculating
the Freshman Index, Augusta University will convert new SAT scores to the equivalent
old SAT Score. The equivalent old SAT scores will be used in calculating the Freshman
Index for admission consideration.
You can reference the new concordance tables online.
These requirements are for students who graduated from high school in 2012 or later:
Students who meet regular admissions requirements—i.e. have completed the required high school curriculum (RHSC) from an accredited high school (find your regional accrediting agency here) should follow instructions for freshman admissions. This includes students who attended a public high school outside of the state of Georgia.
Students from non-accredited homeschool programs (or non-accredited high schools) may demonstrate their graduation and completion of the RHSC in an alternative way.
Though not required, applicants are encouraged to submit any or all of the following:
*For Fall 2020, the freshman standard is 1118 on the SAT or 23 on the ACT.
Please contact your admissions counselor for additional information.
A Life Enrichment student is one who has graduated from high school or the equivalent, has not attended high school in the past five years, and has earned no more than 30 semester hours (45 quarter hours) of transferable college credit. The student is not required to submit SAT/ACT scores, however, in order to avoid additional testing, such applicants may submit SAT/ACT scores that are no older than seven years and which are at least 500 in both Verbal/Critical Reading and Mathematics or ACT scores of at least 21 on both English and Mathematics.
