Endicott SAT Scores, GPA, and ACT (2026)

Reading and Writing carries the higher bar in Endicott SAT scores: the middle 50 percent of admitted students landed between 610 and 680 on that section, while Math ran from 583 to 660. Composite Endicott SAT scores tell the same story, with a middle 50 range of 1193 to 1340 and an average of 1274 in the 2024-2025 data. That average sits closer to the top of the range than the bottom, which suggests plenty of admits arrive with scores in the 1300s. For ACT takers, the middle 50 ran from 25 to 30.

Endicott College is a private nonprofit university in Beverly, MA, with about 3,125 students, small enough that admissions can read applications closely rather than sort by numbers alone. The school admitted 71.2% of applicants, so roughly 7 out of 10 who apply get in. Testing is optional in the most recent federal data, meaning you choose whether your score goes in the file. That choice matters here. With an acceptance rate above 70%, a score inside or above the 1193 to 1340 range does real work for you, while a score well below it is one you can simply hold back.

Read your own score against the 1193 to 1340 range. Below 1193 puts you under 3 out of 4 admitted students, and since Endicott is test optional, that is usually a score to withhold while you retest. Inside the range means your score is doing its job: at a school that admits 71.2% of applicants, a submitted score between 1193 and 1340 supports your case without needing to be spectacular. Above 1340 puts you in the top quarter of admits, which strengthens your file and can matter beyond admission itself.

The section splits deserve attention. Reading and Writing sets the higher bar, 610 to 680 versus 583 to 660 for Math. A 640 is comfortably mid range in Math but only ordinary in Reading and Writing. If your verbal score lags your math score by 40 or more points, that is the section where prep hours pay off first for this school, because it is the section where admits are strongest.

Admitted students at Endicott typically present an unweighted GPA around 3.3 to 3.7. That band leaves room for a B plus student with an upward trend, but the transcript behind the number matters as much as the number itself. A 3.5 built on honors and AP coursework reads stronger than the same 3.5 earned in the lightest schedule available. Admissions readers look at what you took, not just what you got.

If your GPA sits at the lower edge of that band, a strong SAT is the fastest offset. Grades take semesters to move. A score can move in weeks of focused prep. At a test optional school like Endicott, submitting a 1340 or better, the top of the middle 50, gives a reader a concrete reason to look past a 3.3. It says the transcript undersells you. That is a much better position than hoping the rest of the application carries the weight on its own.

Set 2 targets. First, 1193: at or above the 25th percentile keeps you in range, and at a school admitting 71.2% of applicants, in range is a solid place to be. Second, 1340: at or above the 75th percentile puts you in the top quarter of Endicott admits, and since the average admit scored 1274, anything from the 1300s up clearly separates you. Break those into section goals too. Aim for at least 610 in Reading and Writing and 583 in Math to match the 25th percentile in each.

If you are between the 2 targets, our score plans map out how many points you need and which topics get you there fastest. If you have not tested recently, take a diagnostic first so you know your real starting line instead of guessing from a practice book. Concrete next step: sit for a full length practice test this week, score it, and compare your section results against 610 and 583 to see exactly where you stand.
