±«Óãtv

Applicants face heavy competition for a place in our freshman class. To determine if you are admissible to ±«Óãtv, we will recalculate your high school GPA based only on grades earned in high school in core academic subject areas, as well as specified AP and IB fine and performing arts courses. ±«Óãtv will add the following quality points for approved AP, IB, AICE, honors and dual enrollment courses, provided you earned a "C" or better.

GPA Quality Points by Course Type

Course Type	Quality Point
Advanced Placement (AP)	1.0
International Baccalaureate (IB)	1.0
Dual Enrollment	1.0
AICE	1.0
Honors	0.5

Taking weighted courses can have a positive impact on your recalculated GPA if you are reasonably successful in these advanced-level courses.

If you completed secondary education in any country outside the U.S., ±«Óãtv requires you to submit the appropriate documents to confirm that you've completed that country's equivalent of graduation from high school in the U.S. Generally, completion of secondary education will consist of 12-13 years of study and the awarding of a diploma or graduation certificate. Please include academic transcripts and exam results for all secondary work.

SAT/ACT/CLT Requirements

±«Óãtv requires freshman applicants to submit official results for at least one college entrance exam (SAT, ACT or CLT). Currently, ±«Óãtv does not require or consider the optional essay section of the SAT or ACT during the admission or scholarship review processes. Similarly, SAT subject tests are not considered for admission or placement.

±«Óãtv's code for SAT is 5828 and for ACT is 0761. Please select ±«Óãtv from the dropdown on CLT website.

• SAT: 1250-1400
• ACT: 27-31
• CLT: 81-91

• SAT: Reading and Writing ≥ 490

• CLT: Verbal Reasoning and Writing ≥ 38

Please note that we do not accept English proficiency tests such as TOEFL, IELTS, Duolingo, or other as substitutes for these minimum test score requirements.

Superscoring

±«Óãtv considers your highest submitted section scores across all SAT, ACT or CLT test dates. We make final admission decisions using only your highest cumulative scores. Each time you submit test scores to ±«Óãtv, we will update your record with any new high scores. We strongly encourage you to submit your scores each time you take the SAT, ACT or CLT. Sending your scores each time you take a test allows us to consider you for all available enrollment-related opportunities — a huge benefit to you.

Testing Recommendations

Since the SAT, ACT and CLT measure college readiness through different means and formats, we strongly encourage you to take each exam once during spring of your junior year in high school to gain experience. You are likely to prefer — and even perform better — on one test over the others, so you can focus on preparing for that test during the fall of your senior year. You should not take any test more than three times because significant performance improvements are unlikely at that point. Exceptions are rare.

To be considered for admission to ±«Óãtv, students are required to have completed two units (years) of instruction in a foreign language. If you have already fulfilled this requirement, submit official transcripts showing the completed foreign language or ASL courses. Refer to the following bullets, which describe the methods to meet the requirement, as well as possible exemptions. Students who have not met FLENT at the point of admission are still admissible, but must meet FLENT before they can graduate from ±«Óãtv.

• Two academic units (years) of the same foreign language or American sign language in high school (9th-12th grades), or one academic unit (year) at level 2.
• Two passing semesters of the same foreign language (e.g., SPN 1120 and SPN 1121) or sign language in college, earning no less than eight credit hours.
• Successfully passing the ±«Óãtv Language Placement Test by placing into the third course or higher.
• Passing subject test level 2.
• One year of an Advanced Placement (AP) foreign language course in high school.
• for two semesters (AP score = 4).
• Passing the Brigham Young University (BYU) .
