Drew is a test-optional school, which means you can choose whether or not to submit your SAT or ACT scores for consideration with your application. We take a holistic approach to reviewing your application and consider many factors in our decision, including your high school grades, course of study, recommendations, essay, extracurricular involvement and SAT/ACT scores, when submitted. We know that standardized tests may not measure the full range of your qualities, so it’s not a requirement of Drew’s admission process.

There are three options when you apply to Drew: Early Decision, Early Action & Regular Decision.
