Hey guys! I am a junior and I've been researching Washington State University. I'm a bit confused about their admission requirements, especially whether or not they require SAT scores. Can anyone help me understand their policy on this? Thanks!
Hello! As of the time of writing, Washington State University (WSU) practices a test-optional policy for undergraduate admissions. This means that you have the choice whether or not to submit your SAT scores as a part of your application. If you decide not to submit your SAT scores, your application will still be considered by the admissions committee and evaluated based on other aspects such as your academic coursework, GPA, extracurricular activities, recommendation letters, and personal statement.
If you believe that your SAT scores can strengthen your application, you may choose to submit them. However, if you think your scores don't accurately reflect your academic capabilities, you can just focus on showcasing your strengths and achievements through other aspects of the application.
Keep in mind that policies can change, so it's a good idea to visit WSU's official admissions website or reach out to their admissions office to confirm their requirements before you apply. Good luck with your college application process!
