Does NC State require SAT scores?

Hi everyone! I'm applying to North Carolina State University (NC State) and want to know if they require SAT scores for admission. Do they have any specific testing requirements I should know about?

2 years ago

For the 2024-2025 application cycle, North Carolina State University (NC State) is test-optional. This means that submitting your SAT scores is not required, and you can choose whether or not to include them in your application. If you feel your SAT scores accurately reflect your academic abilities and can strengthen your application, you can decide to submit them. Alternatively, if you think your scores do not represent your achievements, you can still apply without them.

It is essential to focus on other parts of your application, such as your GPA, course rigor, extracurricular activities, and personal statement, to showcase your skills and commitment to learning in the absence of standardized test scores.

While NC State does not require SAT scores, make sure to check and fulfill other specific requirements outlined by the university, like high school curriculum prerequisites for each intended major. And, of course, always stay updated on their admissions policies, as they may change in future application cycles. Good luck with your application!
