Kalamazoo College SAT Scores, ACT Scores, Acceptance Rate, and Admissions Requirements
K College admits many applicants, but its enrolled students still bring strong academics: a 3.82 average GPA and a 1200 to 1370 SAT middle range. Because SAT submission is much more common than ACT, aim near the top of that SAT range if you choose to submit. With $60,900 tuition, make affordability part of your plan early.
