Common questions

What colleges in Michigan accept a 27 ACT score?

20 four-year colleges in Michigan are within reach of a 27 ACT score, 13 of which admit a 27 squarely within their published 25th to 75th percentile range. The lowest average net price among them is $7,007 a year at University of Michigan-Flint. Figures come from U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard data.

Is a 27 a good ACT score for Michigan colleges?

A 27 places a student inside the admitted range at 13 four-year colleges in Michigan. 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.
