Does anyone know the range of ACT scores Georgetown usually accepts? I'm considering applying, but I'm not sure if my score is within that range or not.
Georgetown University generally accepts applicants with an ACT composite score in the 32-35 range. This is the middle 50%, meaning that 25% of students have scores below 32, and 25% have scores above 35. Keep in mind that these are just general guidelines, and there are students who get accepted with scores both above and below this range.
Admissions to Georgetown is competitive, and while a strong ACT score can help your application, they do consider other aspects of your application as well, such as your grades, course rigor, extracurricular activities, essays, and letters of recommendation. If you feel your ACT score could use improvement, it might be worth retaking the test. However, if the rest of your application is strong, it's still possible to be admitted even if your score is slightly below the middle 50% range. Good luck with your application!
