Stressed junior here. I've been doing some research on Fordham University, and it's starting to seem like a strong contender. What I can't seem to figure out though, is the average SAT score they typically accept. Does anyone have info on this? It would really help me plan my prep. TIA.
Fordham University, like many institutions, provides median SAT scores, which means that 50% of accepted students score above these numbers and 50% score below. The most recent data indicates that for Fordham University, the median SAT score for accepted students falls within the range of 1370-1500.
You should aim for a score within or above this range to improve your odds of acceptance. However, remember that colleges use a holistic approach when making admissions decisions. This means while your SAT score is important, it is only one part of your entire application. They'll also consider your GPA, extracurricular activities, letters of recommendation, and personal essays.
Since you're planning your test prep, remember to study consistently and focus on your weaker areas. There are lots of resources available for SAT preparation, from test prep books to online platforms. Good luck with your studies!
