Monmouth SAT Scores

SAT Score Ranges for Admitted Students:

• Score Range: 1050–1250 (combined Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, and Math)

• Percentile: Middle 50% of admitted students fall within the 1050–1250 range, with the 75th percentile around 1250

Key Points:

• Submitting SAT or ACT scores is optional at Monmouth University (MU) due to its test-optional policy, though scores can strengthen an application if submitted.
• Scores are evaluated as part of a holistic review process, alongside GPA, course rigor, and other factors, rather than strict cutoffs.
• Monmouth University practices superscoring, meaning they consider the highest section scores across multiple SAT test dates for admissions decisions.
• Alternatives such as Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate (IB) scores may be considered for academic readiness or credit, though they do not replace SAT scores if submitted.
• Applicants are encouraged to aim for an SAT score of at least 1150 or higher to be competitive, ideally targeting the upper end of the 1050–1250 range for a stronger chance of admission.
