Competitive ACT scores are variable and dependent on the type of institution an individual student wishes to attend. According to a recent survey of ACT data at several hundred universities in the United States, the most elite schools report average ACT scores in the low-to-mid 30s. Among the typical postsecondary institutions in this category are Harvard (middle-50% ACT scores of 32-35), the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (33-35), Dartmouth (30-34), Stanford (31-35), and Caltech (34-35). Many of the larger public universities list middle-50% ACT scores in the mid-to-high 20s/low 30s, such as Penn State (25-29), the University of Wisconsin-Madison (27-31), the University of California-Los Angeles (25-32), and the University of Washington (26-31). The next tier of schools includes the University of Arizona (21-27), the University of Oregon (22-27), Washington State University (19-26), and California State University-Long Beach (20-25). We urge our clients to set score goals at the top of these ranges, which will make almost any applicant more likely to be accepted.
