Hey folks, I'm considering applying to Temple University and want to know what SAT scores they typically expect from applicants. Does anyone have an idea of their requirements or the average score of accepted students? Thanks!
Temple University has adopted a test-optional policy for the 2024-2025 application cycle. This means that submitting SAT scores is not required, and you can choose whether or not to include them in your application. If you feel that your SAT scores do not accurately represent your abilities, you may decide not to submit them.
However, if you choose to submit your SAT scores or are curious about the average scores of accepted students for comparison, here are some statistics to consider. For the incoming class of 2024 (the last year for which data is publicly available), the middle 50% score range for admitted students was around 1130 to 1360. Keep in mind that this range is from a couple of years ago, and it may not exactly reflect current statistics.
Remember that besides test scores, Temple University will also consider other factors such as your high school grades, extracurricular activities, essays, and letters of recommendation. A strong performance in these areas can help make up for any shortcomings in your test scores if you choose to include them. Good luck with your application!
