CPC SAT Scores

SAT Score Ranges for Admitted Students:

• Score Range: 900–1100 (combined Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, and Math)
• Average Score: Approximately 1000
• 75th Percentile: Around 1100, meaning top admitted students often score at or above this mark

Key Points:

• SAT or ACT scores are not strictly required at Central Penn College (CPC); the college has a test-optional policy for many programs.
• When submitted, SAT scores are evaluated as part of a holistic review process, alongside GPA, extracurriculars, and personal statements.
• CPC does not officially superscore SAT results, so applicants should submit their best single-sitting score.
• Alternatives such as AP or IB test scores may be considered for placement or credit but are not substitutes for SAT in admissions.
• For competitive applications, prospective students should aim for an SAT score of at least 1000–1100 to align with Central Penn College’s average admitted student profile.
