Mississippi State University Testing Policy

Test Optional: Yes

Self-Reporting Allowed: Yes

Mississippi State University is test optional, meaning applicants do not need to submit standardized test scores for admission. Additionally, self-reporting of scores is allowed, which lets students report their own test scores without official documentation. Currently, 6% of applicants submit SAT scores while 85% submit ACT scores; the total exceeds 100% because some students submit both SAT and ACT scores.
