Hey there! I'm working on my college list and really interested in applying to Rice University. I was just wondering if anyone could help me with the average SAT score range for admitted students to see if I have a solid shot there. Thanks in advance!
Hello! Rice University is a competitive school, and the middle 50% SAT score range for admitted students is typically around 1500-1560. This means 25% of admitted students scored below 1500, and another 25% scored above 1560. While a strong SAT score can be advantageous, keep in mind that Rice reviews applications holistically, considering factors like your grades, course rigor, extracurricular involvement, essays, and recommendations in addition to test scores. So, even if your SAT score falls outside of the middle 50%, it's still worth applying if you feel you excel in other areas. Good luck with your college list and application process!
