Hi, I'm really interested in applying to Syracuse for college. Could anyone tell me the average SAT score of students admitted to Syracuse? I want to see how competitive my chances are. Thanks!
Hello! The average SAT score for students admitted to Syracuse University typically falls within the range of 1200-1400. It is worth noting that Syracuse is officially test-optional, so you actually aren't required to submit an SAT (or ACT) score. However, you're wise to still be thinking about a target, as there are instances where including a score with your application would be wise.
