USA will be offering spring, summer, and fall 2023 applicants a test-optional path for admission to USA. Students with high school GPA's with a 3.4 or better will be automatically admitted to South. Students with GPA's below a 3.4 will enter a review process for admission. These students could be asked to supply additional materials. Students who choose the test optional track will also be eligible for scholarships. Scholarships for test-optional students will be awarded based on strength of curriculum, grades, and a variety of other factors.
Students are able to select test-optional on their applications. We do recommend that students with ACT 21 or better and/or SAT 1060 or better submit their scores for best scholarship consideration.
