57	INFORMATION CATEGORIES
58	Admission Deadline: Most of the time, we put down priority admission deadlines. Many schools have rolling admission dates. However, more scholarship money is available and a greater likelihood of admission happens by meeting priority deadlines.
59	Scholarship Deadline: These are the general deadlines when schools require you to indicate you are interested in applying for competitive scholarships and financial aid. You should not miss this deadline.
60	ACT: This section tells the range of average ACT scores (25th to 75th percentile)for those admitted to each school. Having a score in the higher level of that range should result in more scholarship money. Being at the lower end of that range could mean not being admitted. Most schools will want a qualifying ACT Score by the February test at the latest.
61	Graduation Rate: When looking at schools, one way to judge is how many of their students actually get a degree. The national average for percentage of students that get their degree within 6 years is 58%. The number listed for each school is the percentage of students that earn their degree within that 6 year window.
62	Cost/Year: This is the approximate cost of tuition as well as housing, meal plan (room and board), etc. The cost is based on MISSOURI RESIDENTS. Keep in mind that no matter the cost of a school, most schools average about 50% of total cost in financial aid.
63	Acceptance Rate: This is the percentage of those applying who are accepted by this particular institution.
64	Merit Based Scholarships:Link to merit-based or automatic scholarship. There are many types of financial aid. Merit based or automatic scholarships are those that are usually based on ACT and/or gpa, or class rank. These scholarships do not require any additional application. For a complete list of possible scholarships, visit the specific institutions' website.
