Does Texas State prefer the ACT or SAT for admission?
Texas State does not prefer one test over another and will accept either for admission purposes. Test sub-scores are not combined. The score which is the best from one sitting will be used to determine admission eligibility. Please note the SAT score taken into consideration is the sum of the Critical Reasoning and Math sections only. The ACT/SAT writing section is required, but will not factor into the admission decision.
