Admissions Chances Florida Atlantic University, which accepts over half of applicants, has a selective admissions process. If your SAT/ACT scores and GPA fall within the schools average ranges, you have a strong chance of being accepted. However, FAU also considers the rigor of your high school courses, not grades alone. AP, IB, and Honors courses receive additional weight in the admissions process. Also, certain programs at FAU (Business, Nursing, Architecture, Engineering, and Music, among others) have additional admissions requirements. In the graph above, the blue and green dots represent accepted students. You can see that the majority of admitted students had high school averages of B- or higher, combined SAT scores of about 1000 or better (ERWM), and ACT composite scores of 20 or higher. Your chances of being admitted improve significantly with grades and test scores a little above these lower ranges.
