Northwestern University Testing Policy

Test Optional: Yes

Self-Reporting Allowed: Yes

Northwestern University is test optional and allows self-reporting of scores, meaning that applicants can choose whether or not to submit standardized test scores like the SAT or ACT, and if they do submit, they can report their scores directly without sending official reports. For the current applicant pool, 100% of students submitted SAT scores while 50% submitted ACT scores. This totals 150%, indicating that some students submitted both SAT and ACT scores.
