Currently, Texas A&M University has a test optional policy which suggests the SAT or ACT is not mandatory for admissions. However, submitting these scores can strengthen the candidate's application, especially if the academic part of the applicant is not that strong. 

For applicants who submit SAT scores, the middle 50% range of admitted students' SAT scores lies approximately between:

  • Composite SAT Score: 1140 to 1380

  • English (EBRW): 570 to 680

  • Math: 570 to 700

Average SAT score is around 1260, and the average ACT score of admitted students typically falls between 25 and 31.
