Hi everyone, Rice University is high on my list, but I'm confused about the ACT scores. What is their average or range of ACT scores for admitted students? If you're in Rice and used your ACT score for admission, what was your score like?
Hello! For Rice University, the middle 50% ACT score range among admitted students is typically between 33 and 35. This means that 25% of admitted students scored below a 33, and another 25% of students scored above a 35. Bear in mind though, having a score in this range does not guarantee admission, and similarly, a score outside this range does not rule out a potential acceptance. Admissions decisions are based on more than just test scores; your academic performance, extracurricular involvement, and application essays also hold significant weight. To give yourself the best chance, aim for a strong application overall, rather than focusing solely on achieving a particular test score.
