Common questions

What colleges in New York accept a 35 ACT score?

35 four-year colleges in New York are within reach of a 35 ACT score, 5 of which admit a 35 squarely within their published 25th to 75th percentile range. The lowest average net price among them is $13,269 a year at The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art. Figures come from U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard data.

Is a 35 a good ACT score for New York colleges?

A 35 places a student inside the admitted range at 5 four-year colleges in New York. Whether it is a good score depends on the target school: a score above a school's 75th percentile is typically where merit scholarship consideration begins, and crossing that threshold can reduce what a family pays by thousands of dollars a year.
