SAT for International Students

Transfer Students
1

<p>I know the SAT is very important when it comes to students from the U.S., but I was wondering why is it a requirement for students who are not from the U.S. originally?
I'm an immigrant from Eastern Europe and although I've never taken the SAT, I'm pretty sure my score would not be good if I take it. For example, I took the PPT TOEFL, and even though my English is very good, my score was 537 (not even 600, which is a requirement by most schools).</p>

<p>I would like to transfer to a U.S. top school, but I'm scared that my future low SAT score would ruin my chances. I'm also a non-traditional student. I'm 24.</p>
