SAT requirements for Hampton University?

Starting my college applications and looking at Hampton University, but I can't seem to find any clear info on their SAT requirements. Does anyone have any info on what SAT score range they usually accept?

Hampton University has a holistic review process, taking many different aspects of a student's application into account. That being said, sustainability in academics (i.e. your coursework and grades) is crucial, but standardized test scores can play a significant role too, helping to get a more comprehensive understanding of an applicant's academic abilities.

To give you some perspective, based on previous admissions data, the middle 50% SAT score range for Hampton University typically falls between 840 to 1220. This means that 25% of students scored below 840 and 25% scored above 1220. However, always remember that these are just averages and there are certainly students who have been accepted with scores below or above this range. The college admission process is not solely about numbers but factors in many different elements including extracurricular activities, leadership roles, and personal essays.

I encourage you to apply regardless of your SAT score, and make sure to highlight your strengths and passions in other parts of your application. High test scores never guarantee admission, nor do low scores preclude it. It's about your unique story and the overall value you can bring to their student body.
