What SAT and ACT scores do Concordia College at Moorhead students report?

For applicants submitting ACT scores, Concordia College at Moorhead offers a reference range rather than an admission threshold. Applicants should compare their own ACT result with the 21 through 26 range, which covers the middle half of enrolled students who submitted ACT scores.

That means the span runs from the twenty-fifth to the seventy-fifth percentile within submitted scores, not among every enrolled student. It does not set a minimum score, predict an individual admission decision, or describe applicants who did not submit an ACT result.

About these student measures

The entering-student group includes part-time entrants as well as other attendance patterns.
