The Department of Student Affairs makes sure that these traditions stay strong and that each student feels safe and supported in exploring new challenges. By promoting self-knowledge, leadership, responsibility and diversity, we are cultivating student excellence every single day.
We are the Department of Student Affairs, and we invite you to be a part of our heritage.
Alcorn State University
From Wikipedia, The Free EncyclopediaAlcorn State University, located near Lorman, Mississippi, United States, is a public land grant university. It was founded in 1871 as the nation's first state-supported higher education institution for African American students. Alcorn State University is a member school of the Thurgood Marshall Scholarship Fund.
History
Alcorn State University was founded on the site originally occupied by the Oakland College, a school for whites established by the Presbyterian Church. Oakland College closed its doors at the beginning of the Civil War so that its students could answer the call to arms. Upon failing to reopen at the end of the war, the property was sold to the state of Mississippi and renamed Alcorn University in honor of James L. Alcorn in 1871, then governor of the state of Mississippi.
The college opened with eight faculty members and 179 students in three buildings on a 225 acre (0.9 km²) campus.
Hiram R. Revels resigned his seat in the United States Senate to become Alcorn's first president. The state legislature provided $50,000 in cash for ten successive years for the establishment and overall operations of the college. The state also granted Alcorn three-fifths of the proceeds earned from the sale of thirty thousand acres (120 km²) of land scrip for agricultural colleges. The land was sold for $188,928 with Alcorn receiving a share of $113,400. This money was to be used solely for the agricultural and mechanical components of the college. From its beginning, Alcorn State University was a land-grant college.
In 1878, the name Alcorn University was changed to Alcorn Agricultural and Mechanical College. The goals for the college set by the Mississippi legislature clearly emphasized training rather than education. The school, like other black schools during these years, was less a college than a trade school.
At first the school was exclusively for black males but in 1895 women were admitted.
In 1974 Alcorn Agricultural and Mechanical College became Alcorn State University. Governor William L. Waller signed House Bill 298 granting university status to Alcorn and the other state supported colleges.

Question: What are my chances of getting into the following colleges out of state ?- I have a 3.0 - ACT : 20 - SAT 1110 - 160 hrs of community service - I have token 3 college classes - and i was the assistant director of a club at my high school - im a junior - I live in dayton ohio here is my list - Alabama A&M - University Of Cincinnati - North Carolina A&T - Alabama State University - Clark Atlanta University - Florida A&M - Southern University A&M College - Northern Kentucky University - Alcorn State University Dont lie be truthful !18 months ago
Best AnswerYou should definately apply, but for your SAT if that is 1100 for the 3 parts (reading, math and writing), you need serious help. If that is just for Math and Reading, thats a different story. Alabama A&M: You should be ok. Not a great school though. Admissions is very simple. University of Cincinnati: I'd say slim at best. Your ACT and SAT scores are below their lowest range and your grades won't boost that up at all. North Carolina A&T: You should be ok. Not a hard school to get into though. Alabama State: You should be ok. This is not a good school though. SAT average, for example, for admissions is 680! Clark Atlanta: You should be ok. This is a bit better than the other schools you are ok for, but still, the average SAT is 810. Florida A&M: This is ok as well. Once again, not a hard school to get into. SAT Average is 880. Southern University A&M College: You are fine here. This is not a school I'd suggest. They ACT range is 15 - 18, they don't require SAT Reading and the SAT math range is 380-460! Northern Kentucky University: Another along the same lines. SAT range is: 890 - 1100. Alcorn State: One more exactly the same. SAT Range is: 800 - 930. I suggest you get a better group of schools. You have a bunch that are all exactly the same. You should shoot for a school where your SAT/ACT scores are right in the middle. You should also try and get that GPA up as much as possible.
