University of Louisiana at Monroe Admissions

ULM is less selective with a 70% acceptance rate, meaning most students who apply get in. The middle 50% of admitted students score between 1085-1320 on the SAT or around 23 on the ACT. These scores reflect the university's focus on providing accessible education to Louisiana residents, with 93% of students coming from in-state. The school looks for students who want practical, career-focused programs rather than those chasing prestige. ULM particularly values students interested in health sciences, aviation, or business who appreciate smaller class sizes and personal attention. The university seeks motivated students ready to take advantage of hands-on learning opportunities in northeast Louisiana.
