While students are welcome to submit SAT/ACT scores, if they do not feel their standardized test scores reflect their full potential, students may apply test optional. Lycoming will evaluate the rigor of their high school classes, GPA, letters of recommendation, and extracurricular activities in lieu of these scores. They will still get full consideration for all types of financial aid, academic/talent scholarships, and grants. Applicants may indicate their intent to apply test optional on their application. If they have already applied and wish to switch to test optional, they should complete our test optional choice form.
