Yes, submitting a valid ACT or SAT score will now become mandatory from the 2027-28 session. Students interested in Fall 2028 admissions, will have to submit either of the two scores. It was stopped during the COVID-19 pandemic, however, the university has now decided to introduce this policy again.

The university, in its recent findings, discovered that students who did submit SAT or ACT scores, did much better in their studies on campus, than those who didn't.

Princeton does not have a minimum requirement for SAT. However, a score in the range of 1500-1580 should be enough, per an unofficial source. It also considers academics, curiosity, and leadership potential of a student.

Other requirements include LORs, SOPs, Essays and transcripts of past education.  Students have to submit their applications in advance to allow enough time for processing of documents.

The best date to take SAT is either in junior year or somewhere around spring intake. Planning exam around these dates in March, May and June has many benefits. If you don't score as per your requirement you can re-appear whenever you like.
