Yes — UF requires testing
UF requires every first-year applicant to submit SAT, ACT or CLT scores. The official policy linked on this page is the source of truth for applicant type, entry term, deadlines, and any exception.
UF SAT score range
The latest official institutional score source linked below reports a 1340–1480 middle-50% SAT composite range, with a midpoint of 1410, among enrolled score submitters.
Cohort dates and reporting definitions can differ by institution; open the official source for its precise reporting year. This describes enrolled score submitters, not an admission cutoff.
Where does your SAT score sit?
Because testing is required, use the published 1340–1480 range for context and submit the strongest valid score you can produce.

Four details that shape the decision
- No published SAT cutoff
- UF does not publish the 1340–1480 middle-50% range as a minimum or guarantee. It describes enrolled students who submitted scores, not an automatic admission threshold.
- SAT superscoring is supported
- UF considers highest SAT section results across eligible test dates. Follow the official reporting instructions when listing multiple sittings.
- Check self-report and verification rules
- UF’s SAT code is 5812. Use the official policy for whether scores may be self-reported at application time and when an official testing-agency report is required.
- Entry-term policy matters
- Under Florida Board of Governors admission rules. Testing rules can change by cycle, so confirm the entry term shown on the official page before submitting.
From an admissions number to a Math plan
A college range tells you where past score submitters landed. It does not tell you which Math skills will move your own score.

Separate the benchmark from the goal
Place your composite against the published 1340–1480 range, then inspect the Math subscore separately. A total inside the range can still hide a Math weakness that is worth fixing before test day.

Make the submission decision in context
Because UF expects or requires testing for the stated cycle, the first goal is a valid report by the deadline. Use the published figures as planning context, not as a promised admission threshold.

Turn the gap into a Math study list
Run an IQClub SAT Math diagnostic, rank missed skills by frequency, and retest after focused practice. Use a score target tied to UF and your program rather than chasing points without a decision rule.
