Hey guys, I'm planning to apply to Columbia University and would like to know what the average SAT score is for admitted students. Can someone help me out with this? Thanks!
Hello! The average SAT score for admitted students at Columbia University is around 1510-1560 out of 1600. This range represents the middle 50% of admitted students, meaning 25% of admitted students scored below 1510, and 25% scored above 1560.
Keep in mind that a strong SAT score is just one aspect of your application, and Columbia uses a holistic review process, which means they consider your academic performance, extracurricular involvement, essays, and letters of recommendation, among other factors.
To maximize your chances of admission to Columbia, aim for a score within or above the average range, but also focus on developing a well-rounded application with strong extracurriculars, essays, and teacher recommendations. Good luck with your application!
