Hey, I'm doing my college research and Pace University caught my attention. But, I'm a little in the dark about their SAT Score requirements. Can anyone shed some light on this? Thanks!
Pace University, like many other institutions, has adopted a test-optional policy. This means you can choose whether or not to submit your SAT scores as part of your application. As of the 2024-2025 application cycle, they are continuing with this policy.
If you believe your SAT score enhances your application and demonstrates your academic ability, then feel free to share it. However, if you feel that your score does not reflect your full potential or achievement, you may choose not to submit it. Admission officers will instead emphasize other aspects of your application, like your GPA, rigor of your coursework, essays, letters of recommendation, and extracurricular activities.
When the SAT was used in admission decisions at Pace University, the middle 50% range for accepted students was roughly between 1120 and 1300. This data is somewhat out-dated due to the test-optional policy's adoption but can still serve as a reference if you wish to submit your scores.
Ultimately, the decision to submit your SAT scores should be based on how confident you are about your performance and how well you think it shows your potentials.
