UMaine SAT Scores

SAT Score Ranges for Admitted Students:

• Score Range: 1050–1260 (based on recent data for admitted students across UMaine campuses)
• Average Score: Approximately 1160, reflecting the middle 50% of accepted applicants
• 75th Percentile: Around 1260, indicating a competitive edge for higher scores

Key Points:

• SAT/ACT scores are optional for most University of Maine System (UMaine) campuses due to test-optional policies implemented in recent years.
• When submitted, scores are evaluated as part of a holistic review, alongside GPA, course rigor, and other factors.
• UMaine practices superscoring for SAT, meaning the highest section scores from multiple test dates are combined for consideration.
• Alternatives such as AP or IB test scores may be considered to demonstrate academic readiness if SAT scores are not submitted.
• Applicants are encouraged to aim for SAT scores above 1160 to align with the average of admitted students at the University of Maine System (UMaine).
