Missouri S&T acceptance rate and admissions profile

Missouri S&T, a public university in Missouri, reports a 73% acceptance rate and sits in the moderately selective band. In practice that means it admits more applicants than it rejects, so a strong application is judged against an applicant pool that is already self-selected.

Use this page to see what Missouri S&T weighs, where it ranks among Missouri schools, and how a profile like yours is likely to land. Admitted students post a 75th-percentile SAT around 1120, a useful checkpoint for where your scores sit, though it is a reference range and not a cutoff.

The factors that carry the most weight at Missouri S&T are rigor of secondary school record, academic GPA, and standardized test scores. Solid grades in a challenging schedule do most of the work here, with the rest of the application providing context. These ratings come from Missouri S&T's reported Common Data Set, so the full chart below reflects what the school itself says it values, not a generic guess.

Among the 35 Missouri schools we track, Missouri S&T ranks #21 most selective by acceptance rate.

As a public university, residency matters: in-state applicants generally see meaningfully better odds than the headline rate suggests.
