Candidates have the option to submit ACT or SAT scores with their application, or they may apply Score Optional. If they decide to apply with ACT or SAT scores, George Mason University will use the self-reported SAT and/or ACT test scores as part of their holistic admissions process.

U.S. colleges are increasingly turning to international students whose native language is not English and who have lower standardized test scores than their American counterparts to fill their need for diverse student populations. This update allows non-native English speakers to gain admission without applying for the SAT or ACT scores, although some schools may still require these scores.

There is no specific answer to this, usually, tier 1 universities prefer candidates with ACT composite scores of 30 or more. Since a lot of universities have become test-optional the may not require applicants to submit an ACT score at all. But there are applicants who would still submit an ACT score to prove their academic knowledge and analytical side too. Thus, there is no answer to the question as to what is a good ACT composite score, it all ultimately depends upon how th student wants to portray it.

Yes, the SAT or ACT scores are required for all freshman applicants. The SAT and ACT score will vary from course to course. However, SAT/ACT scores are not required for Spring, Summer or Fall 2024 admission. This is applicable to those applicants who have a 3.4 GPA or higher. The SAT and ACT score should be directly submitted by the official source to the university.
