Admitted Students

WELCOME, ADMITTED STUDENTS!

You’re invited to become the person of your dreams.

Getting accepted into college is exciting, and we hope you are celebrating this major accomplishment!  It's all about figuring out what college will be your place and your community while also deciding who you want to be in the future.

Now that you're admitted to Agnes Scott College, our job is to help you see yourself as a Scottie. For any difficult questions that arise along the way, we're here for you. There's no place like home...especially when that home is Agnes Scott!

Congratulations on your admission to Agnes Scott College!

A Community to Thrive

Gor'Nese '25 from Leavenworth, KS

"At first, I wasn't sure I was comfortable with an inclusive women's college or how far away from my home that Agnes Scott was located. When I toured campus, I was able to truly see the community. Everyone seemed so comfortable and they were being exactly who they are. After that, I knew this was the place for me."

So what's next?

How do you go from applying to colleges to making decisions about where to enroll? What are your next steps? We've got your back!

Let's break it down into five steps. From now until May 1, 2025, your plan for making your decision to become a Scottie is:

1. Visit Agnes Scott for the first time or again.
2. Make Your Financial Plan, including submitting the FAFSA.
3. Meet Your Future Community - that's other admitted Scotties and the current Agnes Scott community.
4. Get All Your Questions Answered by your Agnes Scott Admission Counselor
5. Officially Enroll to Be A Scottie

Your Next Steps on Your Scottie Journey

1. Visit Agnes Scott 

If you haven’t already, or even if you have, make sure that you visit our campus! We have numerous options for whatever would help you get your questions answered best, including virtual opportunities for those for whom traveling to Atlanta won’t work right now. We also have three different Admitted Scottie Day opportunities as special events just for admitted students.

2. Make Your Financial Plan 

100 percent of Scotties receive some form of need-based financial aid. For 2025, U.S. News & World Report named us a top performer among national liberal arts colleges for Social Mobility, which means we are committed to making sure you get from point A to point B, no matter your financial situation. Learn about your eligibility for aid at Agnes Scott.

In order to give students more time to start considering the total financial cost and make plans prior to enrollment, we have launched an Early Financial Aid Calculator. Responses will come out within one to two weeks.

FILL OUT EARLY FINANCIAL AID CALCULATOR

Once FAFSA opens in December, your next step is to complete your FAFSA so you are considered for federal student aid. Use Agnes Scott's school code 001542. We recommend submitting the FAFSA as soon as you can after it opens; however, our priority deadline for filing is February 1.

3. Meet Your Future Community 

Part of seeing campus is connecting with our community, and you’ll be able to do that virtually as well. Starting in early January (or a few weeks after you receive your admission decisions), you’ll receive your special invitation via email to join the Class of 2029 Discord channel, where you can chat with other current and future Scotties and get to know your future roommates, classmates and friends. Make sure to check your email to find it!

Also, coming soon! Each year Agnes Scott Admission hosts numerous virtual opportunities to meet with your future classmates and faculty in addition to the Admitted Scottie Day events. Keep an eye on the visit page for those opportunities.
