Hi there! I'm applying to the University of Missouri and I was curious about their SAT requirements. Is there a minimum score they're looking for or any specific sections they weigh more heavily? Thanks for your help!
Hi! For the 2024-2025 application cycle, the University of Missouri (Mizzou) is test-optional, which means submitting SAT or ACT scores is not required for admission. However, if you feel that your test scores will strengthen your application, you're welcome to send them.
Mizzou does not have a strict minimum SAT score requirement, but the middle 50% SAT range for admitted students is approximately 1140 to 1340. This means that 25% of students scored below 1140, and 25% scored above 1340. While there isn't a specific section that the university weighs more heavily, it's a good idea to aim for balanced scores in both the Reading and Writing and Math sections.
Keep in mind that Mizzou looks at other factors in addition to test scores, such as your high school grades, extracurricular involvement, personal statement, and recommendation letters. So, make sure to give attention to all aspects of your application.
Good luck with your application!
