Hi there! So, I'm considering applying to Howard University, and I was wondering if anyone knows the average ACT scores for admitted students? I want to make sure my scores are in line with their expectations. Thanks for any info!
Hi! Howard University is a great choice, and it's good that you're considering how your ACT scores fit with their expectations. According to the latest data, the middle 50% of admitted students at Howard University have an ACT score ranging from 20 to 26. That means 25% of students score below 20 and 25% score above 26.
Of course, remember that test scores are just one part of the application, and Howard, like many universities, reviews applications holistically. This means that other factors like your GPA, extracurricular activities, essays, and letters of recommendation are taken into consideration in the admissions process. While it's helpful to have an ACT score within the middle 50% range, don't be discouraged if your score is slightly below, especially if other areas of your application are strong.
Best of luck with your application to Howard University!
