Alabama's average ACT - What's the deal?

Hey all, so I'm thinking about applying to Alabama and I'm curious about their average ACT scores. Anyone know what they are? Is a 30+ an overkill or right on target?

For the University of Alabama, a score of 30+ on your ACT is not overkill; it's actually a great score for admission! The mid 50% ACT range for admitted students at Alabama is roughly 22-31. This means that 50% of admitted students scored between 22 and 31, while 25% scored below 22, and the remaining 25% scored above 31.

With a 30, you'd be towards the higher end of the mid 50% range, which means you would be a competitive applicant from an ACT score standpoint. However, while a good ACT score can strengthen your application, it's just one piece of the puzzle, and there are other factors that admissions officers look at, too. You'll also want to make sure you have strong grades and extracurriculars, as they form crucial components of your application and help demonstrate that you're a well-rounded student. Additionally, you'll want a well-written essay that showcases your personality and enthusiasm for your future studies at Alabama.

Good luck with your application to Alabama - roll tide!
