Common questions

What colleges in Georgia accept a 28 ACT score?

24 four-year colleges in Georgia are within reach of a 28 ACT score, 7 of which admit a 28 squarely within their published 25th to 75th percentile range. The lowest average net price among them is $8,105 a year at Gordon State College. Figures come from U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard data.

Is a 28 a good ACT score for Georgia colleges?

A 28 places a student inside the admitted range at 7 four-year colleges in Georgia. Whether it is a good score depends on the target school: a score above a school's 75th percentile is typically where merit scholarship consideration begins, and crossing that threshold can reduce what a family pays by thousands of dollars a year.
