If you're wondering if you have the SAT scores you'll need to get into one of the four-year schools in the University System of Ohio, here's a side-by-side comparison of scores for the middle 50% of enrolled students at the main campuses. If your scores fall within or above these ranges, you're on target for admission to one of these public universities in the state of Ohio.

Realize, of course, that SAT scores are just one part of the application. At many of the Ohio campuses, the admissions officers will also want to see a strong academic record, a winning essay, meaningful extracurricular activities and good letters of recommendation.
