Hi, I'm applying to Hawaii Pacific University and I'm wondering if there are any minimum SAT requirements that I should be aware of. Does HPU have a specific SAT range or score it looks for in students?
Hawaii Pacific University (HPU) has adopted a test-optional policy for undergraduate admissions. This means SAT or ACT scores are not required for your application to the university. You can still submit your test scores if you think they showcase your academic abilities, but there is no minimum SAT requirement or specified range that HPU is looking for in their applicants.
Keep in mind that even without test scores, the university will still review your application holistically, focusing on your GPA, coursework, extracurricular activities, letters of recommendation, and personal statement. Concentrating on these aspects of your application will give you a better chance of admission at HPU, and also allow you to display your strengths and interests without relying on standardized test scores.
