JSU SAT Scores

SAT Score Ranges for Admitted Students:

• Score Range: 940–1200 (combined Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, and Math)
• Average Score: Approximately 1070
• 75th Percentile: Around 1200, meaning 25% of admitted students score above this mark

Key Points:

• SAT or ACT scores are required for most freshman applicants to Jacksonville State University (JSU), though some exceptions may apply based on specific programs or circumstances.
• JSU evaluates scores as part of a holistic review, considering them alongside GPA, extracurriculars, and other factors rather than strict cutoffs.
• Jacksonville State University practices superscoring, taking 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 for placement or credit but do not replace SAT/ACT requirements for admission.
• Applicants are encouraged to aim for an SAT score of at least 1070 or higher to align with the average of admitted students at JSU and strengthen their application.
