SAT Range1140 to 1300
ACT Range26 to 31
Average GPAN/A
Acceptance Rate84.5%

Saint Michael's admits many applicants, but the middle SAT range of 1140 to 1300 shows that admitted students are still academically solid. Because the school is test-optional and few students submit scores, send an SAT near 1300, or an ACT near 31, only if it strengthens the picture your grades and courses already show.
