Hey guys, hope you're all going well. I'm starting to think about my college choices, and Clemson University is pretty high up on my list. I've taken the ACT once already, and I plan to retake it. Just wondering if anybody knows what the typical ACT score is for students admitted to Clemson? I want to know what I should be shooting for. Thanks, any help is greatly appreciated!
Hi there! First off, it's great that you're planning ahead and seeking information to aim for the best in your ACT retest. On the path to college admission, understanding the average test scores for your target schools is definitely a key step.
As regards Clemson University, their average ACT score varies each year, but generally falls within the range of approximately 28-32. This means that most admitted students scored within these numbers on the ACT. Remember, though, these are averages and not requirements—having an ACT score within this range doesn't automatically guarantee admission, just as a score outside of this range doesn't exclude you from consideration.
The most important thing is to do your best and try to show your strengths through various aspects of your application including grades, extracurricular activities, and your personal statement. Good luck with your ACT schedule!
