CMSV SAT Scores

SAT Score Ranges for Admitted Students:

• Score Range: 900–1100 (based on recent admissions data)
• Average Score: Approximately 1000
• 75th Percentile: Around 1100, meaning top admitted students often score at or above this mark

Key Points:

• SAT/ACT scores are optional at the College of Mount St. Vincent (CMSV) due to its test-optional policy, though submitting scores can strengthen an application.
• Scores are evaluated as part of a holistic review process, alongside GPA, essays, and other factors, rather than strict thresholds.
• CMSV practices superscoring, combining the highest section scores from multiple SAT test dates to create the best possible composite score.
• Alternatives such as AP or IB test scores may be considered to demonstrate academic ability if SAT scores are not submitted.
• Applicants are recommended to aim for an SAT score of at least 1000–1100 to align with the average and upper percentile of admitted students at the College of Mount St. Vincent.
