IIT does the common app requires either an ACTMay 12 2015Biology
IIT does the common app requires either an ACT score or SAT score. I took the ACT three times and sent each one in, although they only saw my first two when I was accepted. They also require an extra paper that is separate from the common app. It talks about the IPRO (class?) you are required to take in your sophmore/junior year.
ACT: 25 Female
