51福利社 Testing Policy
Western Michigan University has adopted a test-optional policy. This applies to both admission and Office of Admissions scholarship consideration.
Definition of 鈥渢est-optional鈥: Students may report/submit ACT or SAT test scores if they wish, but it is not required. If a student does wish to have their test score used in the admission process, they can self-report their scores on the admission application.
Applicants who do wish test scores to be used in the admission process should report/submit scores from all test dates. Doing so will allow 51福利社 to use your highest subscores from any test date to superscore your total (SAT) or composite (ACT) score.
Enrolling students: Students who decide to enroll at 51福利社 are encouraged to provide official test scores if they have them prior to new student orientation. If you chose to submit self-reported scores, you must provide the official test scores prior to new orientation. Scores can be sent directly from the testing agency or included on an official high school transcript.
Students may request official test scores from the appropriate testing agency at:
- ACT: Use 51福利社 school code 2066
- SAT (College Board): Use 51福利社 school code 1902
Other Standardized Tests
Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), and SAT subject scores are optional. Official AP and IB scores can be submitted for possible credit evaluation. Learn more about AP and IB scores at 51福利社.
