FAQs

• With BU’s new test policy, should I submit standardized tests?

  

  Prospective students and applicants must decide for themselves whether or not to include standardized test scores with their application for admission to Boston University. When making this decision, students should consider the totality of their academic record, their contributions both in and out of the classroom and to their communities, and whether they feel confident that the sum of these experiences fully reflects their academic ability and potential. Students will have the ability to indicate whether they would like BU to consider their standardized test scores when they apply. Once they have submitted their application, this answer cannot be changed.

• If you choose to submit standardized test scores:

  

  BU does not require the optional essay on the SAT test or the optional writing component for the ACT. Your official score reports must be sent to BU directly from the College Board or ACT. The BU codes to use are: SAT: 3087 ACT: 1794 BU superscores both the SAT and ACT. To take advantage of superscoring, we recommend submitting all your test scores if you take more than one test or take a test multiple times. For both the SAT and ACT, BU will use the highest score of each section, regardless of test date, to best represent you as an applicant. If you’ve taken the SAT more than once, you can select which results you want to send to us using Score Choice. We will only review the highest SAT scores you submit. For the ACT, we will recalculate a new composite score using the highest score from each section, regardless of test date.

• What is Boston University’s test policy?

  

  Boston University will adopt a test optional policy for first-year applicants applying for fall 2023/spring 2024. This policy applies to all undergraduate schools and colleges at Boston University as well as all scholarship programs. International students will be required to submit the TOEFL, IELTS, or DET test as the primary means for evaluating English-language proficiency.

• What is BU’s policy on the College Board’s Score Choice and ACT Super Scoring if students choose to send BU their test score?

  

  If students choose to submit test scores, BU strongly recommends students submit their scores from each test administration. BU has always considered a student’s highest SAT section scores in making admissions decisions and will continue to do so. For more information about Score Choice, please visit the College Board website. For the ACT, if you send in scores from multiple test dates, the Board of Admissions will consider the scores from each of the subcategories, noting the highest scores achieved for each. For this reason, we encourage applicants to submit scores from all ACT test administrations as well. We recommend that you request to have your test scores sent three weeks prior to the application deadline.
