Hey everyone! I'm starting to look into colleges and I'm interested in CU Boulder. Can someone let me know if they require the SAT or if it's test-optional?
Thanks a lot!
Hey there! As of now, CU Boulder has adopted a test-optional policy for students applying for Fall 2023 and beyond. This means that you have the choice to submit your SAT scores as part of your application, but it's not a requirement. If you decide not to submit your test scores, you won't be at a disadvantage during the admissions process, as the university will focus mainly on your coursework, GPA, and other parts of your application to assess your academic abilities.
However, if you feel that your SAT scores are strong and will boost your application, you can certainly submit them. Just make sure to weigh the pros and cons based on your unique situation and application before making a decision.
Good luck with your college search and application process!
