Hi everyone! I'm considering applying to Temple University and wanted to know what their SAT score requirements are like. Is there a minimum score I should aim for or an average score range for admitted students?
Temple University adopted a test-optional policy in 2015, which means that submitting SAT scores is not required for admission. However, if you choose to submit your scores, it's a good idea to target a competitive score to strengthen your application.
The middle 50% range of SAT scores for admitted students to Temple is typically around 1130-1360. This means that 25% of admitted students score below 1130, and 25% score above 1360. While aiming for a score within this range is helpful, remember that Temple evaluates applicants holistically, considering factors like GPA, course rigor, extracurricular activities, and essays alongside test scores.
If you feel confident about your SAT scores and believe they will enhance your application, you can submit them. Otherwise, you can opt not to submit your scores and focus on other aspects of your application to showcase your strengths. Good luck with your application to Temple University!
