As a junior aiming for Villanova, I need to get a decent score on my SATs. Does anyone know what Villanova's average SAT score or score range is? It would really help me set a goal for my studying.
Villanova University, as a highly competitive institution, typically expects strong SAT scores from its applicants. As of the most recent information available, the middle 50% SAT score range for accepted students is between 1330 and 1460. This means that 25% of Villanova's admitted students scored below 1330, and another 25% scored above 1460.
Remember though, test scores are only one aspect of your application. Villanova, like many universities, reviews applications holistically. This means they consider all parts of your application including your GPA, course rigor, extracurricular activities, and essays.
So while aiming for within or above that middle 50% range can strengthen your application, not reaching it doesn't necessarily count you out, and doing well in other areas can balance out a lower score. Good luck with your studies!
