While visiting I learned about the requirements, history of the school, and the opportunities the school offer.
The requirements to get into Spelman are to have a minimum GPA of a 3.6 and a ACT score of 24. You would have a better chance of getting accepted if you have extra curricular activities and leadership skills. In order to graduate you must have completed 120 credit hours and the certain amount of credit hours for your major.
Spelman College was founded in 1881 in the basement of Friendship Baptist Church by two teachers in Atlanta, Georgia. The teachers who founded the school came to Atlanta to educate former enslaved women.
Spelman is the number one school to send African American women to medical school. The college offers a Bachelor of Arts degrees; Art,Child Development, Drama and Dance,Economics, English, etc. The Bachelor of Sciences are Biochemistry, Biology, Chemistry, Computer and information Sciences, Engineering, Mathematics, etc. Spelman has a 80% four year graduation rate.
This is what I learned from the tour.
