SAT scores for applying to Drexel?

Hi, I'm in my junior year and Drexel University is on my target list. I’ve just got my SAT score back and I wonder if it's good enough for Drexel? Could someone fill me in on the average SAT score ranges that Drexel typically accepts? Thank you!

When considering SAT scores for Drexel University, the middle 50% of admitted students typically score between 1210 and 1410. This means that 25% of Drexel's admitted students score below 1210, while another 25% score above 1410. If you fall within this range or above, you can feel confident that your SAT score aligns with what Drexel University is typically looking for.

However, keep in mind that Drexel University, like many other schools, takes a holistic approach when reviewing applications. SAT scores are definitely a significant element, but they are only one aspect of your application. Other factors such as your GPA, course rigor, extracurricular activities, and essays are also critical.

Remember that as of the 2024-2025 application cycle, Drexel is a test-optional institution. This means that SAT or ACT scores are not required for your application. You can choose whether or not to submit these scores. To learn more about test-optional policies and how to weigh them out, take a look at our blog article: https://blog.collegevine.com/does-test-optional-mean-test-optional/. Overall, if you believe your SAT score does not represent your academic potential, you can decide not to submit the test scores.

It's crucial to tailor your application to highlight your strengths and express your interest in the university. For instance, your essay can be an excellent platform to showcase your passion for your chosen field of study and demonstrate how you can contribute to the Drexel community.
