I've been looking into Drexel University, and I'm curious about their SAT/ACT requirements. Do they have a test-optional policy? Any current applicants or students who can provide more info would be really helpful!
Yes, Drexel University currently has a test-optional policy in place for undergraduate admissions. This means that you can choose whether or not to submit your SAT or ACT scores as part of your application. If you feel that your test scores do not accurately represent your abilities or would not strengthen your application, you can opt not to submit them.
Drexel will still give full consideration to your application without test scores. They will focus on other aspects of your application, such as your high school grades, course rigor, extracurricular activities, letters of recommendation, and personal essay. Keep in mind that if you have strong test scores, submitting them could still benefit your application and showcase your academic strengths. However, the choice is ultimately up to you, and there is no penalty for applying without test scores.
It's essential to ensure that the rest of your application components are strong and well-crafted, especially if you choose not to submit test scores. Good luck with your application to Drexel University!
