Hello everyone! I'm planning to apply to Drexel University, and I was wondering if anyone knows the average SAT score for admitted students? I want to make sure my application is competitive. Thanks in advance for any help!
Hello! The average SAT score for admitted students at Drexel University typically falls within the range of 1200 to 1400. To be a competitive applicant, it's a good idea to aim for a score within or above this range.
Keep in mind that Drexel, like many universities, takes a holistic approach to their admissions process, so while test scores are important, they will also be considering your grades, coursework, extracurricular activities, essays, and other factors.

Finally, it is worth noting that Drexel is currently test-optional, so you technically do not have to submit an SAT score. However, there are still many instances where including a score in your application could be a good idea.
