Florida Memorial University SAT Scores, ACT Scores, Acceptance Rate, and Admissions Requirements
Florida Memorial’s 85% acceptance rate makes admission reachable, but the 50% freshman retention rate is the number to study closely. Because the school is test-optional, submit SAT or ACT scores only if they strengthen your academic picture, and use your process to confirm advising, costs, and first-year support.

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Florida Memorial, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year and save the summer before senior year and fall of senior year for retakes. For the November 1 Early Decision and Early Action deadlines, September is the safest last ACT retake month, while October may work for the SAT if scores are released before the deadline. Earlier retakes give you more chances to improve a superscore.
