Iowa State University is test-optional for Fall 2021 freshman applicants. If you choose to self-report your ACT or SAT scores when you apply for admission to Iowa State, then before you enroll you must request that your official test scores either be sent to Iowa State directly from the testing agency, or these test scores must be included on your official final high school transcript. If you choose not to self-report your ACT or SAT scores when you apply for admission to Iowa State, then you do not need to have your test scores sent to Iowa State.
