<p>I am considering Northwestern but I was just curious what people's ACT scores were that got accepted. I have a 31 right now but I am going to get it higher (hopefully).</p>

<p>I got a 30 and got accepted, but I'm pretty sure it's not all about scores, since there were people that got higher and got rejected/waitlisted.</p>

<p>31-32 ACT scores garner 32.6% admission, slightly above average.</p>

<p>I also had a 30 and was accepted. One thing I read, I think somewhere on NU's site or an email, was that NU only looks at your highest subscores. So while 30 was my highest composite, if you just used my highest subscores and averaged those, I'd have a 32 composite.</p>
