SAT Score Ranges for Admitted Students:

• Average Score: Approximately 950
• 75th Percentile: Around 1050, meaning top admitted students score at or above this mark

Key Points:

• SAT or ACT scores are not strictly required at Lincoln University Pennsylvania (LU), as the university has adopted a test-optional policy for many applicants.
• When submitted, SAT scores are evaluated through a holistic review process, alongside GPA, essays, and other criteria, rather than strict cutoffs.
• LU does not officially mention a superscoring policy, so students should aim to submit their best single-sitting scores.
• Alternatives such as AP or IB test scores may be considered for academic placement or credit, but they do not replace SAT scores in admissions if tests are submitted.
• Prospective students are encouraged to target an SAT score of at least 950–1000 to align with the average admitted student profile at Lincoln University Pennsylvania.
