Hi there! I'm applying to the University of Texas at Austin and was wondering what the average ACT scores were for admitted students. Could any of y'all help me with that? Thanks in advance!
Hi! It's essential to know the average test scores for a school you're interested in. For the University of Texas at Austin, the middle 50% ACT scores for admitted students typically range from 29 to 34.
While these scores can provide you with a general idea of where you might want to be in terms of your ACT score, remember that UT Austin considers other aspects of your application, such as GPA, extracurricular involvement, essays, and letters of recommendation. While a strong ACT score is definitely an asset, their admissions process is holistic, so a slightly lower ACT score can still be offset by other strong aspects of your application.
Best of luck with your application to UT Austin!
