Hello everyone! I'm pretty interested in Miami University of Ohio and wanted to know their average ACT scores for admitted students so I can work towards achieving it. Can someone please help me with that? Thanks!
Hello! For Miami University of Ohio, the middle 50% ACT score range for admitted students is typically around 26-32. This statistic means that 25% of admitted students score below a 26, another 25% score above a 32, and 50% fall within this range.
Aiming for a score within this range or higher will make you a competitive applicant. It's worth noting, though, that test scores are just one aspect of the application, and the admissions process also considers other factors such as GPA and extracurricular involvements. So, make sure to dedicate yourself to making these other areas as strong as possible as well.
Finally, it's worth noting that Miami University of Ohio is officially test-optional, so you actually are not required to submit an ACT (or SAT) score. However, you're smart to still be thinking about target ACT scores, as there can still be instances where including a standardized test score with your application can be a good idea (for context, almost 60% of accepted students at Miami University of Ohio submitted an ACT or SAT score).
