You may have read that the average SAT is 1170 or 26 ACT. If you are above those averages and have strong grades, you are doing well. Students with scores below the average should remember that it’s an average and not a minimum. Remember, we take your test scores in context with your entire application. We accept either test. We recommend that you take two tests (two SATs, two ACTs, or one of each). We’ll take your top score. Whatever you do, try to relax while taking the test.

A copy of your score report will be sent to you and the schools you list on your registration form. That might include your high school, if you list its code number, and several colleges or universities. Part of the fee for students taking the test is the cost of sending your score report to colleges, universities, and/or scholarship programs that you designate. In other words, the colleges you list on your registration form will automatically be sent your scores.

ACT/SAT scores are used to place students into the appropriate levels of math, English, and reading courses. If ACT or SAT scores place students into courses below college-level, they may try to improve their course placement by taking the COMPASS test.

Our Student Records Department has PSAT, SAT and ACT test scores on the transcripts for some students, but only if the student provided us with his/her correct social security number and put the correct social security number on the test at the time the test was taken.

We are under no requirement to maintain these scores, but do so as a convenience to the students.

If you had your scores sent to NAU, an advisor can look up your information at Orientation and inform you of your placement. Score a 19 on the ACT or a 470 on the SAT and you can take MAT 110 (College Algebra) or STA 270 (Statistics). For more information about your Mathematics placement level, contact an academic advisor or the NAU Department of Mathematics and Statistics.

Your composite score on the ACT is the average of your 4 scores rounded to the nearest integer, so it is also a 1-36 score. Because the SAT and the ACT are completely different tests developed by different companies, their scores cannot be compared directly.
