• -Cumulative 3.3 high school GPA or greater (GED 562) no ACT/SAT test score required.

MC strictly adheres to these requirements, so no rounding up! If you do not meet the MC UofL eligibility requirements, you can either attend Jefferson Community and Technical College (JCTC) to participate in the MC program or take advantage of the UPS Earn & Learn program until you reach the 60 transferable hours or have obtained an associate degree.

*Beginning fall 2020, MC will consider a first-time MC student's ACT Superscore of 21 or higher or the SAT Superscore equivalent of 1060, if the minimum 21 ACT or 1060 SAT composite score is not met.

The ACT Superscore is the average of the student's highest Math, Science Reasoning, Reading, and English section scores. The SAT Superscore is the sum of the student's highest Math and Evidence-Based Reading and Writing scores.
