What's up, y'all? I'm curious about what SAT scores are required for the University of South Florida (USF). Do they have a minimum score you need to hit or is there a preferred range? Thanks in advance!
Hey there! The University of South Florida (USF) does not have an absolute minimum SAT score requirement. However, to gauge your competitiveness, it's helpful to look at the middle 50% range of scores for admitted students.
For USF, the middle 50% range for admitted students' SAT scores is around 1250 to 1400. Keep in mind that this range represents the 25th to 75th percentile of admitted students, so 25% of admitted students score below this range, and 25% score above it. Aiming for a score within this range can improve your chances of acceptance.
Remember, USF considers other factors in addition to test scores, such as your high school GPA, coursework rigor, extracurricular activities, and personal statements. A strong application overall can help compensate for a slightly lower SAT score. Good luck with your college applications!
