Hey everyone! I'm considering applying to ECU and I'm curious about their average SAT scores. Does anyone know the general range for accepted students? Thanks in advance!
Hey there! East Carolina University (ECU) has a middle 50% SAT score range for accepted students which falls between 1070 – 1190. Keep in mind that these scores represent the 25th to 75th percentile of admitted students, so 25% of accepted students score below this range and another 25% score above it.
It's important to remember that while SAT scores are a factor in the admissions process, other aspects of your application, such as your academic performance, extracurricular activities, and essays, also play a critical role in the decision.
It's also worth noting that ECU is officially test-optional, so you actually are not required to submit an SAT (or ACT) score. However, you're smart to still be thinking about target SAT scores, as there can still be instances where including a standardized test score with your application can be a good idea.
