Carleton College Testing Policy

Test Optional: Yes

Self-Reporting Allowed: Yes

Carleton University is test optional, meaning applicants are not required to submit standardized test scores for admission. The University also allows self-reporting of scores, which permits students to indicate their test results themselves instead of sending official scores. About 30% of applicants choose to submit SAT scores, while 27% submit ACT scores. The combined percentage of students submitting these scores exceeds 100% because some students submit both SAT and ACT scores.
