In terms of acceptance rates, Virginia Tech is more selective. For Fall 2022 applicants, James Madison received 31,755 applications and accepted 23,952 (75.4%). Meanwhile, Virginia Tech received 42,103 applications and admitted 23,806 (56.5%). JMU provides some additional context as well. The mid-50% of accepted SAT scores were between 1160 and 1310. For the ACT, the mid-50% of scores were between 23 and 29.

Students interested in applying to Virginia Tech can apply by the November 1 early decision deadline, December 1 early action deadline, or January 15 regular decision deadline. Students interested in applying to James Madison University can apply by the November 1 early action deadline or the January 15 regular decision deadline.
