Hey people, getting really stressed about the ACT requirements for Ohio State University. I want to be sure I'm on track. Anyone have any information about this?
For the 2024-2025 application cycle, Ohio State University is test-optional. This means that you have the option to submit your ACT scores, but it is not a requirement for your application. You can choose whether or not you want your test score to be considered as part of your application review.
If you decide to submit your ACT scores, keep in mind that the middle 50% ACT score range for admitted students in previous years has been around 29-34. However, there is no cutoff score; Ohio State reviews each application holistically, considering many factors beyond test scores. Remember that you are more than just a test score, and things like your GPA, course rigor, extracurricular activities, and essays also play significant roles in the admission decision.
If you feel your ACT score accurately reflects your academic abilities and enhances your application, you should consider submitting it. If not, focusing on other areas of your application like your coursework, essays, and extracurricular involvement will be beneficial.
