Testing

Information regarding testing for applicants to the Class of 2028

Testing is not the ultimate factor in evaluating an application. If a student has taken standardized testing, we encourage the student to submit those scores regardless of how they may compare to scores on historical Dartmouth class profiles.

We strongly advise students to focus on the many holistic elements of the application that showcase academic excellence and their personal narrative. Dartmouth has practiced holistic admissions review for more than a century, and that ancient ideal of the whole person continues to guide our application review process.
