Hey folks, applying to UCLA here. Do you guys know what the SAT score requirement for them is? I'm a bit nervous and just want to make sure I'm aiming for the right target. Thanks in advance!
Hello, for the 2024-2025 application cycle, UCLA, along with all other University of California (UC) schools, is adopting a test-blind policy. This means that they will not consider SAT or ACT scores for admission at all. The university has decided to focus more on other factors when reviewing applications.
Therefore, you don't need to worry about reaching a specific SAT score target for UCLA. Instead, you should concentrate on other aspects of your application, such as maintaining a strong GPA and taking rigorous courses, participating in meaningful extracurricular activities, and crafting a compelling personal statement.
Try to focus your energy on aspects of your application that showcase your intellectual curiosity, leadership skills, and commitment to your areas of interest. And always remember - it's about the quality of your involvement in activities and your academic pursuits, not just the quantity. Take this as an opportunity to go beyond test scores and discover new ways to express your passions and potential contributions. Best of luck!
