Hey, guys! I was looking into applying to the University of Michigan and wanted to know what their SAT score range is. Can anyone provide some insight on what scores are generally seen as competitive? Thanks for the help!
Hello! The University of Michigan (UMich) is a highly competitive school. For the 2024-2025 application cycle, they are test-optional, meaning you can choose whether or not to submit your SAT scores as part of your application. However, if you do decide to submit your scores, it's good to know what competitive scores look like for UMich.
For the Class of 2027, the middle 50% SAT score range for admitted students was 1350-1530. This means that 25% of admitted students had an SAT score below 1350, 50% had a score between 1350 and 1530, and 25% had a score above 1530. To be competitive, you should aim to have a score within or above this range.
Keep in mind that while test scores are important, UMich evaluates applicants through a holistic review process. This means that other factors like your high school transcript, extracurricular activities, essays, and letters of recommendation will also play a significant role in their decision. Having a strong SAT score can help your application, but it's essential to focus on the other components as well.
Good luck with your application!
