Hey guys! I'm working on my college list, and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) has piqued my interest. I wanted to know about the ACT score requirements for UNLV, so I can plan my test preparation accordingly. Any guidance would be awesome!
UNLV does not have specific ACT score requirements but instead uses a holistic approach when evaluating applicants. However, it's helpful to know the average ACT scores of admitted students to have a better understanding of what UNLV generally considers competitive.
The middle 50% ACT score range for students admitted to UNLV in recent years has been between 18 and 25. Note that this range covers the scores of the middle 50% of admitted students, meaning that 25% of admitted students scored below this range and 25% scored above. While having a score in or above this range can make your application more competitive, it's not the sole deciding factor for admission.
In addition to your ACT score, UNLV will also consider factors like your high school GPA, coursework rigor, extracurricular activities, and personal statement. Although your test scores are important, they're just one part of your overall application, so make sure to present a well-rounded application highlighting your strengths in multiple areas. Good luck with your test preparation and college application process!
