I've been researching Rice, and I can't find if they require the SAT or if they're test-optional. Does anyone have up-to-date information on Rice University's SAT requirements for the upcoming application cycle?
Rice University has adopted a test-optional policy for the upcoming application cycle. This means that submitting your SAT scores is not required, and you can choose whether or not to include them in your application. If you feel that your SAT scores well represent your academic abilities and would strengthen your overall application, you can include them. However, if you think that your scores may not showcase your full potential, you can opt to not submit them, and the admissions committee will solely evaluate your application based on other factors such as your grades, extracurricular activities, essays, and letters of recommendation. It's important to carefully consider whether submitting your SAT scores will be beneficial for your individual application. Good luck!
