they used to be, but not anymore - Auburn is a little more selective than Bama currently

Alabama offers better scholarships that Auburn does for the same grades/SAT/ACT scores


Can attest to this personally. My 19 year old is currently matriculating at Bama.

4.3 GPA, 35 ACT super score.

Auburn accepted her but didn’t exactly aggressively pursue her. Bama and Mississippi state flung financial aid at her like mad to try and get her on campus.

I’m not too mad about her decision. One of the best decisions you can make is to avoid racking up a shite ton of debt at a young age, and she’s enjoying her time at Bama.

She’s doing the sorority life and loving it lol.

also - from the article that ranks schools:

Bama:

Average Test Scores:
SAT Range: 1170-1400
ACT Range: 24-31

Auburn:

Average Test Scores:
SAT Range: 1260-1390
ACT Range: 26-31

with these numbers; I'd place Auburn higher; I guess Bama got the nod with the high point being 1400 vs 1390; but I'd rank on where the low point starts; especially with AU being 90 points higher...

Congrats on finding the one site that has that ranking order. Nothing in the past decade has Alabama ahead of Auburn.
