Hey, so I was wondering if anyone knows whether Penn State University superscores the ACT for the admissions process? I've seen conflicting information online and wanted to get a clearer answer. Thanks in advance!
Yes, Penn State University does superscore the ACT. This means that they will consider the highest score from each section of the ACT taken on different test dates and combine them to create a new, higher composite score. By superscoring, colleges aim to evaluate your best performance on each section, regardless of when you took them. Just make sure to send all of your ACT test scores to Penn State, so they have the necessary information to calculate your superscore during the admissions process. Good luck with your application!
