Hello! I'm a junior considering applying to East Carolina University next year. I'm curious about their SAT requirements - does anyone know what the average SAT scores are for admitted students? Are they test-optional currently? Thanks for any info!
Hello! East Carolina University (ECU) is currently test-optional for the 2024-2025 application cycle, meaning you do not need to submit an SAT score for your application. However, if you'd like to know the average SAT scores for admitted students before the test-optional policy was implemented, the middle 50% range was between 1070 and 1230. This means that 25% of admitted students scored below 1070, while 25% scored above 1230. Keep in mind that these scores are not directly relevant since ECU is now test-optional, but they can provide you with a general sense of the academic profile of admitted students.
With the test-optional policy in place, ECU will place a stronger emphasis on other factors in your application such as your GPA, course rigor, extracurricular activities, and essays. Make sure to give your best effort in these areas to present a competitive application. Good luck!
