What are important aspects of the application?
There are three significant portions to your application for the Gatton Academy. Your ACT/SAT score will be used as a predictor of readiness for college level work. The Math subscore is especially important due to the nature of the Gatton Academy academic emphasis. Recommendations that can attest to a strong work ethic will be important. Finally, a select group of students will be invited to interview with Gatton Academy staff members and other representatives from throughout Kentucky to explain your preparation and readiness for the Gatton Academy environment. One of the goals for the Gatton Academy student population is that it represents Kentucky geographically and demographically.
