For first-year students 和 transfer students entering Converse, submission of ACT or SAT scores are optional for admission purposes.
Why Test-Optional?
We consider a number of different factors when students 应用 for admission to Converse, including high school grades 和 course selection. A student’s high school GPA has consistently been the best predictor of academic success at Converse, we are very confident we can continue to make sound admission decisions without st和ardized test scores. In order to help us continue studying how predictive the SAT 和 ACT are in first-year success, we will collect test scores of applicants after all admission 和 financial aid decisions are made.
How Does Converse Evaluate an Application Without a Test Score?
Converse considers the following components to make an admission decision:
- Application or Common Application
- High School Transcript
Test scores, if submitted, will be added to these factors.
Can I Still be Considered for Merit-Based Aid Without Submitting My Scores?
是的! 所有申请者, regardless of whether or not they submitted scores, will be evaluated for merit-based aid.
How Do I Know if I Should Submit My Scores?
If you’re pleased with your SAT or ACT scores 和 think they reflect your academic ability, you may submit them for consideration. However, test scores are not required for admission. All applications will be reviewed for admission 和 merit-based financial aid (including scholarships granted by Converse University) with or without test scores. For South Carolina state aid, test scores will still be required.
