    Is Texas Wesleyan test-optional?

    Texas Wesleyan University is test-optional, which means that it does not require applicants to submit their SAT or ACT scores. That means that some students will submit their test scores and others will not. If you choose not to submit your ACT or SAT score, the admissions officers will weigh your grades, extracurricular activities, essays, and interviews more heavily. If you are not sure whether you should submit your standardized test scores, our guide on submitting scores to test-optional schools can help.

    What SAT/ACT score do you need to get into Texas Wesleyan University?

    Colleges use standardized tests like the SAT and ACT as one of many factors to determine their admissions decisions.

However, the majority of accepted applicants to Texas Wesleyan University receive between a 14 and a 21 on their ACT, or a 890 and a 1080 on their SAT.
