Finding Your Scores/Courses

ACT/SAT

Scores Count As:

  • ACT Math score of 26 or higher, or an SAT Math score equivalent will be awarded 3 credits and satisfy the Quantitative Literacy general education requirement. This is effective for students who took the ACT exam September 2016 or later. This will be posted as transfer credit with a CR grade and would be listed as ACTM 1XXX (QL) on the transcript. The credits will count toward the 120 credits needed for graduation, but will not count toward the 30 credits in residency at USU.
  • ACT English score of 29 or higher, or an SAT Critical Reading score of 640 or higher, will waive ENGL 1010 (CL1) and qualify a student for placement into ENGL 2010 (CL2).
