Hey, my dream school is Rutgers and I'm trying to figure out if my SAT score is good enough. Does anyone know what the general SAT score range is for accepted students at Rutgers? Any guidance or advice would help a ton! Thanks!
Hey there! Rutgers University indeed has a wide range of SAT scores for accepted students, so it's essential to understand the general score range. For the class admitted in 2021, the Rutgers-New Brunswick SAT middle 50% ranged from about 1300 to 1500. This means that 25% of accepted students scored below 1300, 50% of students scored between 1300 and 1500, and 25% scored above 1500.

Keep in mind that these numbers can vary slightly from year to year and depending on the specific campus and program you're applying to. While your SAT score is an important factor in the admissions process, it's not the only factor considered. Make sure you pay attention to other aspects of your application, such as your GPA, extracurricular activities, essays, and letters of recommendation.
To maximize your chances of being accepted, it's crucial to aim for the higher end or above the middle 50% range. Work on improving your SAT score, if possible, and ensure the other application components reflect your strengths and dedication.
Good luck on your journey towards Rutgers!
