Hey, everyone! I'm planning on applying to the University of Tennessee and I'm curious about their ACT scores. What score do they typically expect from applicants? Appreciate any help!
Hello! For the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, the middle 50% of admitted students' ACT scores generally range from 22 to 28. To be a competitive applicant, it's ideal to aim for a score within or above this range. Keep in mind that having a score above 28 does not guarantee admission, as the University also considers your GPA, course rigor, extracurricular involvement, and essays when evaluating applications.
Also note that having an ACT score below the middle 50% range does not eliminate your chances of admission but may make it more challenging. Demonstrating strong academic performance, participation in extracurricular activities, and well-written essays can help compensate for a lower ACT score.
In the end, it's essential to present a well-rounded application that highlights your strengths, interests, and fit for the University of Tennessee. Good luck with your application!
