For those interested in SAT scores, check out our other article that discusses <a href=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/university-of-illinois-urbana-champaign-sat-scores\/\">UIUC&#8217;s SAT expectations<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the average ACT score at UIUC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In line with its reputation for academic excellence, the average composite ACT score at UIUC is around <strong>32<\/strong>, out of the maximum possible score of 36. This is significantly higher than the national average of about 19.5. In addition, the 25th percentile score for UIUC applicants is <strong>29<\/strong>, and the 75th percentile score is <strong>34<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These statistics indicate that the lowest 25% of scorers achieved a 29 or below. Meanwhile, the highest 25% of scorers had a composite score of 34 or higher. These numbers reflect UIUC&#8217;s high standards, but also evidence that there is no single score that applicants must achieve to gain admission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/docsz\/AD_4nXeB0ycwwKmBQwQpw9fyp69-Yb0O_uNaZAiBIqKmLJJMQqDMbwlvkVi-3GuCRCQbs5ir47_VtDVXEj6JtLnVryL9jrDKewtcH9zlOlv0hvBMQwUnrCd3R9uut5mjNe7cRGgAnVSxdgJiZxC5aF6LwU_09nKR?key=uUNRa_s7AfpNLdwL_Jw2FQ\" alt=\"University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign ACT composite score chart\"\/><\/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 ACT English score at UIUC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The ACT composite score is the average of the scores a student achieves on each of the four test sections: English, mathematics, reading, and science. In this article, we will break down the UIUC ACT English and Math score statistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The average ACT English score at UIUC is <strong>33<\/strong>. Further, the 25th and 75th percentiles fall at <strong>28 <\/strong>and <strong>35<\/strong>, respectively. This indicates that UIUC students perform very well on the English section of the ACT, with many achieving scores close to perfect. That said, there is no minimum score required for UIUC. In addition, many students do not achieve perfect or near-perfect scores and yet are still admitted.<\/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_Illinois_Urbana-Champaign-English-1-802x212.png\" alt=\"University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign ACT English score chart\" class=\"wp-image-2923\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_Illinois_Urbana-Champaign-English-1-802x212.png 802w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_Illinois_Urbana-Champaign-English-1-300x79.png 300w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_Illinois_Urbana-Champaign-English-1-768x203.png 768w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_Illinois_Urbana-Champaign-English-1.png 1480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 802px) 100vw, 802px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the average ACT Math score at UIUC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The average ACT Math score at UIUC is <strong>30<\/strong>. This is with the 25th percentile at <strong>27 <\/strong>and the 75th percentile at <strong>34<\/strong>. While the math SAT scores at UIUC are slightly lower than the English scores, they are still quite high when compared to the national average.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As with other sections, there is no specific benchmark that applicants must meet. Instead, striving for these percentiles will be your best option to position yourself well in the application process.<\/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_Illinois_Urbana-Champaign-Math-1-802x212.png\" alt=\"University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign ACT math score chart\" class=\"wp-image-2924\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_Illinois_Urbana-Champaign-Math-1-802x212.png 802w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_Illinois_Urbana-Champaign-Math-1-300x79.png 300w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_Illinois_Urbana-Champaign-Math-1-768x203.png 768w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/University_of_Illinois_Urbana-Champaign-Math-1.png 1480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 802px) 100vw, 802px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are UIUC\u2019s ACT requirements?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>UIUC follows a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.admissions.illinois.edu\/faq\/applicant-freshman#required\">test-optional policy<\/a>, meaning that SAT or ACT scores are not mandatory for all first-year applicants. This includes international students, homeschooled students, and recruited student-athletes. However, standardized test scores can help strengthen your application if they are competitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Applicants should self-report their SAT scores on their applications, in addition to sending for free when taking a test if desired. If you are admitted and plan to enroll, you must pay to submit official scores.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that UIUC does not require or use the ACT Writing section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More information about UIUC\u2019s SAT requirements can be found on their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.admissions.illinois.edu\/faq\/applicant-freshman#required\">First-Year Applicant FAQs<\/a> webpage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What percentage of UIUC applicants submit the ACT?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For the most recent admissions cycle, <strong>18% <\/strong>submitted ACT scores. Meanwhile, <strong>47% <\/strong>of applicants submitted SAT scores. However, <strong>35% <\/strong>of these students did not submit any standardized test scores. Although a significant portion of students chose to submit their SAT scores, the test-optional policy ensures that those who do not submit scores are not at a disadvantage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, even though the statistics show that twice as many students chose to submit the SAT as the ACT, UIUC&#8217;s admissions committee does not have a preferene between the two exams. Additionally, students who go test-optional are still provided with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.admissions.illinois.edu\/apply\/freshman\/review\">holistic review<\/a> of their application and have just as strong as chance of being admitted as those who submit test scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should I go test-optional?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Deciding whether to submit SAT scores to UIUC is a personal decision. If you have a strong ACT score that falls within or above the university\u2019s middle 50% range, it can strengthen your application&#8217;s profile.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, not submitting scores will not harm your chances, especially if other aspects of your application are strong. We recommend that applicants consider their scores in the context of UIUC\u2019s average ACT scores to make an informed decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more about how submitting standardized test scores will impact your UIUC application on their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.admissions.illinois.edu\/apply\/freshman\/process\">First-Year Applicant FAQ<\/a> webpage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does UIUC superscore the ACT?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>UIUC <a href=\"https:\/\/www.admissions.illinois.edu\/apply\/freshman\/review\">does not superscore<\/a> the ACT. In addition, the UIUC admissions team requests that students do not create their own superscores when self-reporting test results.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The University considers the highest total or composite score you achieved in a single sitting, along with the highest sub-scores from different test dates. Although this seems similar to the superscoring policies of other schools, there is a slightly stronger emphasis on the scores achieved on a single test day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s a good ACT score for UIUC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>UIUC does not have specific ACT score requirements or cutoffs. However, aiming for scores within the middle 50% range (29 to 34 for the composite score) is advisable. Based on the 50th percentile score of 32, sending any scores at or above 32 will add to your application very favorably.<\/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>29<\/td><td>32<\/td><td>34<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>English<\/td><td>28<\/td><td>33<\/td><td>35<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Math<\/td><td>27<\/td><td>30<\/td><td>34<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I get into UIUC with a low ACT?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is possible to gain admission to UIUC with a lower ACT score. The UIUC <a href=\"https:\/\/www.admissions.illinois.edu\/apply\/freshman\/process\">admissions process<\/a> takes into account various factors beyond test scores; this will benefit students who have lower-than-average test scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While a score below the 25th percentile (29) might be considered low for UIUC, any score above 19.5 is considered above average. Therefore, UIUC&#8217;s high standards will impact what is considered a &#8220;low&#8221; SAT score. Regardless, strong academic performance, extracurricular achievements, and compelling essays can compensate for lower test scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When should I take the ACT for UIUC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For applicants in the Early Action round to UIUC, all application materials, including test scores, should be submitted by November 1.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you still have scores coming in after the application deadline, you need to have selected the score submission option when you applied (as opposed to going test-optional). Then, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.admissions.illinois.edu\/faq\/applicant-freshman\">update your scores<\/a> when you have them, as long as it is sufficiently before you are going to receive your application decision. This will ensure that the admissions officers have enough time to review your new test scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Regular Decision applicants, the deadline is January 5 and the same restrictions as above will apply.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a test date after these deadlines, report your future test date on the application, but remember that your application remains incomplete until the scores are received.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more about deadlines for UIUC ACT score submission on their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.admissions.illinois.edu\/apply\/freshman\/dates\">Dates and Deadlines<\/a> webpage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is UIUC\u2019s ACT code?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>UIUC\u2019s ACT code for submitting official test scores is <strong>1154<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While UIUC no longer requires applicants to submit ACT or SAT test scores, the standards for those who choose to submit scores remain high. Opting not to submit scores will not harm an applicant, but a strong score can only help. Ultimately, the decision to take and submit exam scores should be based on an individual\u2019s strengths, goals, and priorities.
