The University of North Alabama superscores the ACT effective Fall 2021.  Superscoring at the University of North Alabama means that we consider student’s highest ACT section (or subtest) scores regardless of test date. The super composite ACT score is calculated as the average of the best ACT English, Reading, Math and Science subject scores and is used as one of multiple factors in admission and financial aid.  Students are encouraged to send the University of North Alabama all of their ACT scores to utilize the Superscore option.
