Hey y'all, hoping you might be able to assist me. I've been looking at Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) as a potential college destination and I'm a little stressed about my ACT score. Can anyone let me know what scores they typically look for in their incoming freshman class?
Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) has a relatively lenient policy when it comes to standardized test scores. They have a test-optional policy, meaning you are not required to submit your ACT or SAT scores as part of your application. This policy can be particularly beneficial if you believe your scores don't accurately reflect your academic abilities or potential.
However, if you wish to submit your ACT scores, the middle 50% range for admitted students at MTSU is approximately 19-26. This means that 50% of admitted students scored between a 19 and a 26 on the ACT.
Bear in mind that being below or above this range doesn't necessarily mean rejection or acceptance. They also consider other factors like GPA, curriculum rigor, extracurricular involvement, and the application essay. Your ACT score is just one piece of your application.
Best of luck with your applications! Keep doing your research and reach out if you have any other questions!
