Key Points:

• SAT or ACT scores are currently optional for admission to Southern Utah University due to test-optional policies, though submitting scores can strengthen an application.
• SUU evaluates SAT scores as part of a holistic review process, considering them alongside GPA and other criteria rather than strict cutoffs.
• Southern Utah University does practice superscoring, combining the highest section scores from multiple SAT test dates to form 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 in the admissions process if scores are submitted.
• For competitive applications, prospective students should aim for an SAT score near or above the 75th percentile (1240) to stand out at SUU.
