Hello all, hoping you're all staying safe and healthy. I'm trying to figure out what the average SAT scores are for students admitted to Northeastern. I've been studying like mad, but want to know how I compare to admitted students. Any info would be awesome!
Sure, happy to help! The average SAT score of admitted students at Northeastern University typically ranges between 1490 and 1540. This data includes both the Math and the Reading and Writing sections on the SAT. So, if your score currently falls within that range, you would be among the average group of admitted students in terms of SAT scores.
It's also worth noting that Northeastern University is a highly competitive school with a holistic review process. While your SAT score is an important part of your application, the admissions team will also very carefully consider other aspects of your profile, including your high school grades, the rigor of your course load, your extracurricular activities, and your essays.
Keep in mind that these figures could change from year to year, so it's always a good idea to check the most recent data from the Northeastern University's admissions department or their Common Data Set. It's also worth considering that each year's applicant pool can be different, and admission rates can fluctuate based on the strength and quantity of the applications received.
Continued good luck with your exam preparation! Just remember to balance your studying with other aspects of your application. Achievements in many areas can shine on an application to a selective school like Northeastern.
