OPTIONAL: Submit test scores.

Submitting test scores, if you have them, is recommended and will not have any negative impact on admission or scholarships to UofL.

ACT and SAT scores are optional for students, and there are pathways for admission to all of our programs without the ACT or SAT. Learn more about our policy.

Test results may be submitted from the testing agency or appear on your official high school transcript. 

If you plan to submit test scores: 

  • ACT (American College Test)
  • SAT (Educational Testing Service)

Beginning with applications for 2026 start terms, the University of Louisville will no longer require the Science Reasoning section of the ACT for admission to any programs. We will consider the score if it is sent in as part of the composite. UofL will not recalculate a composite ACT score to remove the Science Reasoning section if a score report includes it. For more information or additional questions, please reach out to your admissions counselor.
