Notre Dame Testing Policy

college cover

Test Optional: Yes

Self-Reporting Allowed: Yes

The University of Notre Dame is test optional, meaning that applicants are not required to submit standardized test scores for admission. Additionally, it allows candidates to self-report their scores, which means students can provide their SAT or ACT results without needing to submit official test reports initially. About 32% of applicants choose to submit SAT scores, while 26% submit ACT scores; the combined percentage exceeds 100% because some students submit both types of scores.
