Hey guys, I'm interested in applying to Hofstra University. Does anyone know if they require the SAT for admission? I'm trying to figure out my testing plan and whether I need to take the SAT or not for this specific school.
Hey there! Hofstra University has adopted a test-optional policy for undergraduate admissions. This means that you have the choice to submit your SAT scores, but they're not required for your application. If you feel that your SAT scores would strengthen your application, you can submit them. However, if you think your scores do not reflect your academic abilities or might hurt your chances of admission, you can opt not to include them. Your application will still be evaluated holistically, considering factors such as your GPA, course rigor, extracurricular involvement, recommendations, and essays. So, whether you take the SAT or not is really up to you and how confident you are in your scores. Good luck with your application!
