Hey, I've been considering RIT as one of my top choices, and I'm wondering what the average SAT score of admitted students is. Would any current RIT students or recent applicants be able to provide some insight on this?
Hey! I'm glad to hear that you're considering RIT. For admitted students, the average SAT score typically falls between 1280 and 1430. However, keep in mind that this is just an average, and RIT takes a holistic approach when reviewing applications. Your SAT score is just one part of your application, and they will also consider your GPA, extracurricular activities, essays, and other aspects to evaluate your overall fit for the institution.
It's essential to give equal attention to all parts of your application to present a comprehensive and well-rounded picture of yourself. If you feel confident in other areas of your application, a slightly lower SAT score may not be a significant hindrance. On the other hand, having a score above the average range can boost your chances.
Good luck with your application, and I hope this information helps you in your college search!
