Hi everyone! I'm interested in applying to Arizona State University but I am not going to take the SAT this year. Does Arizona State University require SAT scores for admissions?
Arizona State University (ASU) has a test-optional policy for the admissions process. Under this policy, not submitting your SAT scores will not disadvantage your application. However, test scores can be helpful in certain circumstances, like for scholarship consideration or placement into English and Math courses once admitted. So, while you're not required to submit SAT scores in order to be considered for admission, they can potentially provide additional benefits if you choose to take it and do well.
For extra context, the middle 50% of SAT scores at ASU is usually around 1120 - 1370, and between 19 - 27 on the ACT. While these are by no means hard cutoffs, being around or above those ranges could certainly be advantageous.
Good luck with your applications!
