Eligibility Index
•
The Eligibility Index is the combination of a student's high school grade point average and the
minimum score on either the ACT or the Scholastic Assessment Test (Reasoning) exam.
Grade point average is based on the 10th & 11th grades in all approved “a-g” courses. Bonus
points may be awarded of up to 8 grades of C or better in approved H and AP courses taken in
grades 11 & 12 & up to 2 AP courses taken in 10th grade
This is the MINIMUM requirement. Competitive schools expect higher score for admission.
