UNCG SAT Scores

SAT Score Ranges for Admitted Students:

• Score Range: 980–1160 (combined Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, and Math)
• Average Score: Approximately 1070
• Percentile: Middle 50% of admitted students fall within the 25th to 75th percentile of SAT scores

Key Points:

• SAT or ACT scores are currently optional for admission to the University of North Carolina at Greensboro due to test-optional policies, though submitting scores can strengthen an application.
• Scores are evaluated as part of a holistic review process, considering academic performance and other application materials rather than strict thresholds.
• UNCG practices superscoring for SAT scores, meaning the highest section scores from multiple test dates are combined to create the best possible composite score.
• Alternatives such as Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate (IB) scores may be considered to demonstrate college readiness if SAT scores are not submitted.
• Applicants are encouraged to aim for SAT scores near or above the average of 1070 to increase their chances of admission to UNCG.
