NSU does require ACT or SAT scores. These scores are used to determine your placement in English and Math classes only. If you have already completed your introductory English Composition course (equivalent to our ENGL 1010) and a College Algebra course (equivalent to our MATH 1020), then you do not need an ACT or SAT score.  Alternatively, if you have already completed developmental (remedial) courses in both English and Math you may not need to have an ACT or SAT score.  Please contact the English department at 318-357-6272 and the Math department at 318-357-4308 for more information.  In addition, to learn more about the ACT or SAT tests contact Ms. Barbara Gillis, Director of Testing Services, at 318-357-5246.
