Hello! I'm starting my college applications and am trying to get an idea of which standardized tests are necessary. Does anyone know if the University of Arizona requires the SAT, or do they have other requirements? I want to make sure I'm not missing anything important for my application. Thanks!
For the 2024-2025 application cycle, the University of Arizona is test-optional, which means submitting SAT or ACT scores is not required. You can still choose to submit your test scores if you believe they will strengthen your application, but you won't be at a disadvantage if you decide not to.
The University of Arizona primarily focuses on your high school grades, especially in your core courses (math, science, English, social studies, and foreign language), to evaluate your academic performance. They also consider the rigor of the courses you've taken. You should still review the University of Arizona's admission requirements to ensure you provide all necessary information, such as your high school transcript, extracurriculars, and essays if applicable.
If you decide to submit your test scores, you can self-report them on your application. Remember that some scholarships might still require test scores, so consider submitting your scores if you're applying for those opportunities. Good luck with your application!
