University of Miami ACT Scores, what's the deal?

Got University of Miami on my dream school list. I've heard they accept ACT scores but I've got no idea where that should land. Anyone got a clear picture on University of Miami's ACT score range?

University of Miami, being a selective institution, generally looks for high test scores in its applicants. According to the latest data available, the middle 50% ACT score range for admitted students at the University of Miami is 31-34. Do keep in mind though, these are only averages. Students below and above this range are still accepted.

If your score falls within this range, you're more likely to be seriously considered for admission. If your score is lower, don't despair. While a strong test score can enhance your application, the admissions team at University of Miami also values other parts of your application like your extracurriculars, essays, letters of recommendation, and your high school transcript.

Conversely, if your ACT score is above this range, that's a definite positive, but it doesn't guarantee admission. All parts of your application need to be strong to be competitive.

Keep in mind that every year, the expectations can change based on the applicant pool, the university's goals for their incoming class, as well as changes in admissions policies. For the most up-to-date and accurate data, check the admissions page of University of Miami's official website, as they often update their class profile with the most recent admitted student stats.

Remember, your test score is just one part of your overall application. Demonstrating a 'spike', or highly developed specialty, in your application could help you stand out to admissions officers. After all they're not just selecting students with high test scores, they're building a diverse and well-rounded class.
