About the policies, score ranges, and sources

Required: Scores are generally needed for admission.
Test-optional: Applicants choose whether to submit scores.
Test-free: Scores are not used for admission.
Conditional: Requirements depend on the applicant or program.

Open a college’s Details for sources, admission rates, score choice, and listed scholarship references. Missing scholarship information does not establish that scores have no scholarship value.

Reported ranges and admit rates describe past students or applicants, not requirements or admission guarantees. College records are read from our maintained table, with source-checked notes where shown. Confirm the college’s requirements for your entry year and circumstances.

Need help interpreting your list? A director can connect college policies with grades, scores, and timing.
