Taking the SAT in college

[davehutch]

<p>Hello, I'm an incoming freshman at a local state university and plan on transferring after my first year to a university in D.C. I've never taken the SAT and my ACT scores are lackluster. </p>

<p>My HS GPA was a 3.57 weighted and I scored a 25 on the ACT. Do I need to take the SAT if I wish to transfer to a university outside of Kansas?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>You do not have to. If you plan on transferrign to a top 20 university, I would take it, or the ACT again though (It’s required anyways).</p>

<p>Thanks for the input! So if I was to go for George Washington and not Gtown I wouldn’t need to take the SAT?</p>
