CS said 20% acceptance rate and Math SAT 750 average, at admitted student day.

Given the typical split, and past comparisons of CS and FYE, I’d guess 1460 SAT.

Note that the above are admitted student profiles. Engineering enrolled students are 3.89 and 1413 (the GPA numbers look suspect, DD may be using some type of weighted number).

(They’re revamped the Data Digest - looks better, but they’ve removed the public availability to report by residency and gender)
