SAT Requirements
Nicholls State University adopts a holistic approach to admissions, evaluating each applicant on multiple criteria beyond standardized test scores. While the university requires applicants to submit SAT or ACT scores, it does not publish specific SAT score ranges for admitted students. This lack of emphasis on SAT scores allows prospective students to showcase other strengths, such as high school GPA, extracurricular involvement, leadership experiences, and community service.
Important: Nicholls State University requires standardized test scores but does not prioritize them as a primary factor in admissions decisions.
