Admissions Overview

Muhlenberg accepts 65.51% of applicants, making it less selective than many liberal arts colleges. This acceptance rate means qualified students have a solid chance of admission. The middle 50% of admitted students score between 1200-1400 on the SAT, with an average of 1300. Students typically need strong but not strong test scores to be competitive. The college seeks intellectually curious students who value close faculty relationships and want to explore multiple interests. With its well-known theater program and 8:1 student-faculty ratio, Muhlenberg particularly appeals to students who thrive in collaborative, creative environments where they can pursue both academic rigor and artistic expression.
