Let&#8217;s explore how those expectations translate to SAT scores and requirements at UNC. Don&#8217;t forget check out our other posts that discuss <a href=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/unc-act-scores\/\">UNC\u2019s ACT stats<\/a> and requirements!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the average SAT score at UNC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As expected, UNC SAT scores are competitive. The average score at UNC is around <strong>1470 <\/strong>out of 1600. The 25th percentile for SAT scores at UNC is <strong>1370<\/strong>, and the 75th percentile is <strong>1530<\/strong>. This means that 25% of UNC students scored below 1370, and 25% scored above 1530. Meanwhile, the remaining 50% of students scored between 1370 and 1530. This range reflects the high standards of the institution but also shows that there&#8217;s no single score that guarantees admission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"802\" height=\"212\" src=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-Composite-2-802x212.png\" alt=\"UNC SAT composite score chart\" class=\"wp-image-2877\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-Composite-2-802x212.png 802w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-Composite-2-300x79.png 300w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-Composite-2-768x203.png 768w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-Composite-2.png 1480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 802px) 100vw, 802px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"review_essay_wrapper\" style=\"background-image: url(https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/next-admit\/custom\/images\/shape-curve.webp)\"><div class=\"grid_essaybox\"><div class=\"review_essay_wrapper-content order--xs-1\"><span><h2 class=\"text--md--end text-center\">We\u2019ll review your essay<\/h2><\/span><p class=\"text--md--end text-center\">Receive edits in as little as 24 hours<\/p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\"\/><div class=\"text--md--end text-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/services\/essay\/?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=banner&utm_campaign=well_review_your_essay\" class=\"learn--more navbar__button button button--primary button--sm\">LEARN MORE<\/a><span class=\"text--md--end text-center\">CONSULTANTS FROM<\/span><div class=\"text--md--end text-center ms-img-10\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/next-admit\/custom\/images\/brand_logos.webp\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"font-0\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/next-admit\/custom\/images\/essay_image.webp\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the average SAT English score at UNC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The SAT consists of two sections: the English (reading and writing) section and the math section, each scored out of 800, making the total possible score 1600.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UNC\u2019s average SAT English score is <strong>720<\/strong>. Meanwhile, their admitted students hit a 25th percentile score of <strong>680 <\/strong>and an 75th percentile score of <strong>750<\/strong>. Therefore, an SAT English score lower than 680 would place you in the lowest 25% of scorers, while a score higher than 750 would place you in the highest 25% of UNC\u2019s SAT English scores. Although these are impressive scores, there is no one score that will guarantee admission. At the same time, UNC maintains no minimum SAT English score for admission into the fall 2025 class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"802\" height=\"212\" src=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-English-2-802x212.png\" alt=\"UNC SAT English score chart\" class=\"wp-image-2878\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-English-2-802x212.png 802w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-English-2-300x79.png 300w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-English-2-768x203.png 768w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-English-2.png 1480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 802px) 100vw, 802px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the average SAT Math score at UNC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The average SAT Math score at UNC is <strong>750<\/strong>, slightly higher than the English section score. The 25th percentile of scores falls at <strong>690<\/strong>, and the 75th percentile sits at <strong>780<\/strong>. Although these scores are slightly higher than those of the English section, there is a range of acceptable scores applicants can have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From these statistics, we can see that the lower 25% of students admitted to UNC achieved SAT scores of 750 and below. At the same time, the upper quarter of SAT Math scores at UNC are nearly perfect, reaching 780 and above. However, most scores fall below this mark, so there is no strict expectation to reach a perfect score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"802\" height=\"212\" src=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-Math-2-802x212.png\" alt=\"UNC SAT Math score chart\" class=\"wp-image-2879\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-Math-2-802x212.png 802w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-Math-2-300x79.png 300w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-Math-2-768x203.png 768w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_North_Carolina-Math-2.png 1480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 802px) 100vw, 802px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are UNC\u2019s SAT requirements?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For the 2025-2026 academic year, students applying to UNC are <a href=\"https:\/\/admissions.unc.edu\/faqs\/how-does-unc-look-at-act-or-sat-test-scores\/\">not required<\/a> to submit a test score. In addition, students with a weighted GPA of 2.8 or above (on a 4.0 scale) can choose to go test-optional. However, students with a GPA below 2.8 must submit an ACT and\/or SAT score. For the 2026-2027 academic year and beyond, <a href=\"https:\/\/admissions.unc.edu\/faqs\/how-does-unc-look-at-act-or-sat-test-scores\/\">similar requirements<\/a> apply: students with a GPA of 2.8 or above need not submit a test score, while those below this GPA must submit an ACT score of 17 or higher or an SAT score of 930 or higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that these are <strong>minimum <\/strong>testing requirements for the years indicated. The average student submitting standardized test scores to UNC and achieving admission score well above these minimums. In addition, note that these standards may change before the years indicated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UNC considers test scores as part of their evaluation because they believe they\u2019re helpful when understood appropriately and viewed as part of a larger picture. First-year applicants can self-report their SAT and\/or ACT scores with their application. However, admitted students who choose to enroll must request that the testing service send their official scores to the <a href=\"https:\/\/admissions.unc.edu\/\">Office of Undergraduate Admissions<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The University does not require or recommend the essay section of the SAT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What percentage of UNC applicants submit the SAT?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Among students admitted to UNC, approximately <strong>29%<\/strong> submitted SAT scores, <strong>34%<\/strong> submitted ACT scores. The remaining <strong>37%<\/strong> omitted standardized test scores from their application. The SAT is less popular among UNC applicants compared to other schools. Still, submitting a strong score can still benefit an applicant. Further, although these statistics indicate that more admitted students submitted ACT scores than SAT scores, the University still does not have a preference for one test or the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should I go test-optional?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At UNC, testing is one factor among many. Your scores or lack thereof is never their sole reason for making admission decisions. Therefore, submitting a strong SAT or ACT score can help an applicant\u2019s chances, but choosing not to submit scores will not hurt their chances. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students should consider their scores in the context of UNC\u2019s averages: if your scores fall within or above the 25th to 75th percentile ranges, they are likely worth submitting. Note that in future years your testing requirement is contingent on your GPA. This evidences how much UNC values a holistic understanding of each individual applicant. If you do not believe that test scores will demonstrate your capabilities and strengths, then you need not submit them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does UNC superscore the SAT?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, UNC does superscore the SAT. If you self-report test scores from multiple testing dates, UNC will consider your highest score for each section across all test dates. This policy can benefit students who have taken the SAT multiple times and want to showcase their best scores. You may also use Score Choice to select individual scores or test dates. For more details, check out <a href=\"https:\/\/admissions.unc.edu\/faq\/category\/testing\/\">UNC&#8217;s testing FAQs<\/a> webpage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s a good SAT score for UNC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>UNC does not have specific SAT score requirements or cutoffs and emphasizes that they do not admit solely \u201cby the numbers.\u201d Most admitted UNC students have high standardized testing scores. Given the statistics mentioned above, a score around 1470 or higher would put you in a good position. The upper 25% of UNC students scored 1530 or higher, likely with some perfect scores among them. A \u201cgood\u201d SAT score for UNC is quite high, and anything within the following ranges should make you competitive:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-regular\"><table><tbody><tr><th>Section<\/th><th>25th<\/th><th>50th<\/th><th>75th<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>Composite<\/td><td>1370<\/td><td>1470<\/td><td>1530<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>English<\/td><td>680<\/td><td>720<\/td><td>750<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Math<\/td><td>690<\/td><td>750<\/td><td>780<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I get into UNC with a low SAT score?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Submitting a low SAT score to UNC presents challenges but doesn&#8217;t determine the outcome of your application. \u201cLow\u201d is relative: below-average scores for UNC are still quite high compared to the national averages. For instance, the lowest quartile SAT score at UNC is 1370, while the average SAT score is a 1050. With this in mind, aiming for at least the lower quartile would be in an applicant\u2019s best interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if an applicant demonstrates strong academic and extracurricular achievement in other areas, the admissions committee may judge their application more favorably. For example, a student with a below-average score who shows leadership and initiative through community service or other projects may be judged more favorably than an applicant with a higher score who lacks these attributes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When should I take the SAT for UNC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For students planning to submit applications during their senior year, the best time to take the SAT for UNC is generally during the preceding junior spring semester. That way, students have time to retake the exam in the summer and\/or fall if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students applying Early Action must submit their scores by <strong>December 1<\/strong>, while Regular Decision applicants must submit scores by <strong>February 15<\/strong>. Transfer students have until <strong>March 15<\/strong> to submit their scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is UNC\u2019s SAT code?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>UNC\u2019s SAT code for submitting official test scores is <strong>5816<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While UNC does not require standardized test scores for all applicants, those who choose to submit them and subsequently gain admission often have high scores. Ultimately, the decision whether or not to take and submit the SAT is a personal one based on the individual student\u2019s strengths, priorities, and goals.
