In this article, we will explore the Northeastern SAT scores and requirements. Be sure to check out our other post that discusses <a href=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/northeastern-act-scores\/\">Northeastern\u2019s ACT stats<\/a> and requirements!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the average SAT score at Northeastern?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Unsurprisingly, Northeastern SAT scores are competitive. The average composite SAT score at Northeastern is <strong>1500 <\/strong>out of a maximum of 1600. The 25th percentile score is <strong>1460<\/strong>, while the 75th percentile reaches a strong <strong>1550<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These statistics show that 25% of Northeastern admits scored below a 1460. Further, 25% of successful applicants scored above a 1550. This range highlights the high standards of the admissions team, but also indicates that there is no single score applicants must achieve for 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\/07\/Northeastern_University-Composite-3-802x212.png\" alt=\"Northeastern University SAT composite score chart\" class=\"wp-image-3112\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Northeastern_University-Composite-3-802x212.png 802w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Northeastern_University-Composite-3-300x79.png 300w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Northeastern_University-Composite-3-768x203.png 768w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Northeastern_University-Composite-3.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 Northeastern?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The SAT consists of two sections: the English, or Evidence-Based Reading and Writing (ERW) section, and the Math section. Each is scored out of 800 for a combined total of 1600 for the overall SAT score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Northeastern\u2019s average SAT English score is <strong>750<\/strong>. Meanwhile, the 25th percentile score sits at <strong>730 <\/strong>and the 75th percentile score at <strong>760<\/strong>. Thus, an SAT English score below 730 would place you in the lowest 25% of scorers, while a score above 760 would place you in the highest quarter of Northeastern\u2019s SAT English scores.<\/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\/07\/Northeastern_University-English-2-802x212.png\" alt=\"Northeastern University SAT English score chart\" class=\"wp-image-3113\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Northeastern_University-English-2-802x212.png 802w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Northeastern_University-English-2-300x79.png 300w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Northeastern_University-English-2-768x203.png 768w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Northeastern_University-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 Northeastern?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The average SAT Math score at Northeastern is <strong>770<\/strong>. The 25th percentile score is a strong <strong>770<\/strong>. Further, the 75th percentile score reaches a near-perfect <strong>790<\/strong>, thirty points higher than the 75th percentile English section score. Although there is a disparity between these sections, there is no strict expectation for your math scores to exceed your English scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These statistics reveal that the upper quarter of SAT Math scores at Northeastern are near perfect. Further, the lowest quartile of students scored 750 or below on their SAT Math. However, there is no rigid expectation that applicants must 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\/07\/Northeastern_University-Math-2-802x212.png\" alt=\"Northeastern University SAT math score chart\" class=\"wp-image-3114\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Northeastern_University-Math-2-802x212.png 802w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Northeastern_University-Math-2-300x79.png 300w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Northeastern_University-Math-2-768x203.png 768w, https:\/\/nextadmit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Northeastern_University-Math-2.png 1480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 802px) 100vw, 802px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are Northeastern\u2019s SAT requirements?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For the foreseeable future, Northeastern is <a href=\"https:\/\/admissions.northeastern.edu\/application-information\/required-materials\/\">test-optional<\/a>. This means that applicants are not required to submit standardized test scores. Moreover, students who choose to go test-optional are not at a disadvantage. Every applicant will receive full admissions consideration regardless of their testing status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Applicants can self-report their SAT scores through the Application Status Check. Applicants who are admitted and choose to enroll must submit official SAT scores through the College Board. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that Northeastern does not require or expect the optional essay portion of the SAT or SAT Subject Tests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More details about Northeastern SAT requirements can be found on their <a href=\"https:\/\/admissions.northeastern.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Test-Optional-and-Standardized-Testing-FAQ-2.pdf\">Test-Optional and Standardized Testing FAQs<\/a> page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What percentage of Northeastern applicants submit the SAT?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Among admitted applicants, roughly <strong>27% <\/strong>choose to submit SAT scores. An additional <strong>8%<\/strong> submit ACT scores. Lastly, the remaining approximate <strong>65% <\/strong>choose to go test-optional. These statistics show that the SAT remains a popular choice for Northeastern applicants. That said, there is no advantage in choosing one test over the other apart from individual preference and circumstance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should I go test-optional?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Submitting a high SAT or ACT score can enhance an applicant\u2019s chances for admission to a competitive school like Northeastern. We recommend that any student with the means to do so takes the SAT or ACT. If the test goes well and you achieve a competitive score, it will boost your application. If not, you can choose to omit the score on your Northeastern application. Giving yourself the opportunity to perform well can only help, and poor scores can always be left off your application without penalty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consider your scores in the context of the school\u2019s average scores to decide whether to submit to a test-optional school like Northeastern. If your scores fall within or above the 25th to 75th percentile ranges, they are likely worth submitting. Sending in a strong score will boost your application, but choosing not to submit will not hurt your chances. Ultimately, this is a personal decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does Northeastern superscore the SAT?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Northeastern <a href=\"https:\/\/admissions.northeastern.edu\/application-information\/required-materials\/\">superscores<\/a> the SAT. This means that the Northeastern admissions team will combine your highest Evidence-Based Reading &amp; Writing and Math section scores across multiple test dates to create your superscore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Northeastern also allows applicants to use the College Board Score Choice option, allowing students to select which test dates to submit scores from. This option is beneficial for students who have a score or two they are most proud of and others they would prefer not to submit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s a good SAT score for Northeastern?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Northeastern <a href=\"https:\/\/catalog.northeastern.edu\/undergraduate\/admission\/admission-policy-entrance-requirements\/\">does not<\/a> have specific SAT score requirements or cutoffs. In other words, there is more to an application than test scores. Northeastern has a holistic admissions approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While there is no minimum score requirement, most admitted Northeastern students have high standardized testing scores. The average score is around 1500, so aiming for a score at or above this average would put you in a good position. Further, the upper 25% of Northeastern students scored a 1550 or higher, with many scoring near-perfect results. So, as expected, a \u201cgood\u201d SAT score for Northeastern is quite high.<\/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>1460<\/td><td>1500<\/td><td>1550<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>English<\/td><td>710<\/td><td>730<\/td><td>760<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Math<\/td><td>750<\/td><td>770<\/td><td>790<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I get into Northeastern with a low SAT score?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting into Northeastern with a low SAT score is challenging but possible. \u201cLow\u201d is a relative term: below-average scores for Northeastern are still quite high overall. The lower quartile SAT score is 1460. With this in mind, it would be in an applicant\u2019s best interest to aim for the lower quartile, if not higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, it is still possible to gain admission with an SAT score below a 1460. Applicants who demonstrate strong academic and extracurricular performance can stand out in other ways. A student with a below-average score who demonstrates leadership and initiative through a community service project may be judged more favorably than an applicant with an above-average score who doesn\u2019t demonstrate initiative outside of studying and testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, while scores are important, they are not the only factor. Extracurricular passions and projects, as well as academic performance, are just as important as test scores, if not more so. Lastly, remember that if you feel your scores do not accurately reflect your academic capacities, you can choose to go test-optional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When should I take the SAT for Northeastern?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For students planning to apply during their senior year, the best time to take the SAT for Northeastern is generally during the junior spring semester. However, applicants to Northeastern must submit their test scores by the application deadline. Thus, your last SAT test date must be 2-4 weeks (at the absolute latest) before your application deadline. This will give you just enough time to receive and self-report your test score before you apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more details, see Northeastern\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/admissions.northeastern.edu\/application-information\/admissions-deadlines-decisions\/\">Deadlines &amp; Decisions<\/a> webpage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is Northeastern\u2019s SAT code?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Northeastern\u2019s SAT code for submitting official test scores is <strong>3667<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Northeastern does not require its applicants to submit standardized test scores, those who do and are admitted to this esteemed university are often high scorers. However, choosing not to submit scores will not harm an applicant. Ultimately, whether or not to take and submit the SAT is a personal decision based on each student\u2019s strengths, priorities, and goals.
