Lamar University is not most competitive university to get into as its acceptance rate is 84% that shows almost 84 out of every 100 applicants manage to get enrolled. Once an applicant fulfills Lamar University admission requirements i.e. competitive grades, standardized test scores, English language requirements as well as relevant documents they are most likely to secure an admission in the university.
