Hey, guys! I'm a junior looking into applying to St. John's, but I'm not sure what their typical SAT score range is. Can someone enlighten me on what scores they generally accept? Feeling a little bit stressed about it!
Hi there! I understand how the application process can be a bit stressful. It's important to remember that St. John's University accepts a range of SAT scores, and your application will be evaluated holistically (this means your essays, extracurricular activities, and recommendations also play a significant role in the admissions process).
For St. John's University (located in Queens, New York), the middle 50% SAT score range for recently admitted students is between 1100 and 1310. This means that 25% of admitted students scored below 1100, while another 25% scored above 1310. That said, it's important to aim for a score that falls within or exceeds that range to be considered a competitive applicant.
Keep in mind that St. John's University is also test-optional for the 2022-2023 and 2024-2025 admissions cycles, which means you're not required to submit SAT scores as part of your application. If you feel that your test scores don't accurately represent your academic abilities, you can choose not to submit them and focus on other aspects of your application instead.
Good luck with your college application journey, and remember that there's more to your application than just test scores!
