Hey there! When it comes to Kent State University's SAT score requirements, they've adopted a test-optional policy for the 2024-2025 application cycle, which means they do not require you to submit SAT or ACT scores.

You can still submit your test scores if you feel they will enhance your application, but you're not obliged to. If you want to learn more about test-optional policies and how to navigate them, check out this blog post from CollegeVine: https://blog.collegevine.com/does-test-optional-mean-test-optional

For reference, the middle 50% SAT range for admitted students in previous years was approximately 1090 to 1260. Keep in mind that these values are just for reference, and admissions decisions are not solely based on test scores. Your GPA, rigor of your high school curriculum, extracurricular activities, and personal qualities also play significant roles in the admissions process.

To make your application stand out, ensure that you showcase your unique qualities, accomplishments, and interests throughout your application, not just in your academic profile. Kent State admissions officers want to accept students who will contribute to their campus community in a range of ways, not just academically.

It's also a good idea to research your intended major and highlight any experience or coursework in that field to show your dedication and preparedness for that specific area of study. Don't forget to visit the Kent State University website to get information on specific application requirements and deadlines, particularly related to your intended program, or special opportunities like the Honors College.

If you have any personal questions about your application to Kent State, don't hesitate to reach out to their admissions team directly - they're there to help, after all. Best of luck with your application!
