At Wesleyan College, test-optional really means you can choose your strongest evidence, but a solid score still gives you another way to stand out. With admitted ACT scores typically in the 20–24 range, aim for a 24 or higher if you submit so your testing supports, rather than just matches, your GPA.

Take tests early for the best outcomes

Because Wesleyan College is test-optional, follow this plan only if you choose to submit SAT or ACT scores: take your first test by spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and fall of senior year for retakes. Since Wesleyan College does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, work backward from the Regular Decision deadline and make your last fall retake the latest SAT or ACT whose scores are released before that date.
