    The University System of Georgia won't let Kennesaw State cap admissions, since it's the youngest of the top echelon of Universities. As long as you meet the published requirements the school is required by the state to accept you.

    The USG (The board who oversees KSU along with other GA schools) has set a scoring system that is used for schools with no admissions cap, KSU included. The formula for this score is 500 * HS GPA +1.06 * SAT - 74. KSU requires a minimum score of 2200 for automatic acceptance. This is roughly a 990 SAT and a 2.5 GPA.

    Alternatively, you just need a GPA of 3.2 for acceptance.

However, students must not take this lightly and apply to the university within the deadlines in orde
