Hi everyone! I'm interested in applying to NC State and wanted to know their ACT requirements or average scores. Thanks a bunch!
Hi there! NC State University doesn't have specific ACT score requirements, but they do have an average range for admitted students that can help give you a sense of what they generally look for. For admitted students, the middle 50% ACT composite score range is typically around 25-31. This means that 25% of admitted students have scored below a 25, and 25% have scored a 31 or higher, while half of the students admitted fall within that range.
It's important to remember that while standardized test scores play a role in the application review process, colleges like NC State also consider other factors like GPA, high school curriculum rigor, extracurricular activities, and essays. If your ACT score falls within or above the average range, you should be in a good position, but a strong overall application will maximize your chances. Good luck with your application to NC State!
