ACT Scores for Women's Colleges

Do you have the ACT scores you need to get into a competitive women's college? This article compares the ACT scores of accepted students for seven highly ranked women's colleges. If your scores fall within or above the range in the chart below, you're on target for admission to one of these great women's colleges.

ACT scores, of course, are just one part of the application. It's possible to have scores above the averages presented here and still get rejected if other parts of your application are weak. Similarly, some students with scores significantly below the ranges listed here gain admission because they demonstrate other strengths.
