| Route type | SAT reference | Qualification context |
|---|---|---|
| Year 1: USA overview | Optional SAT 1000; 500 each section | High School Diploma GPA 2.8; essential subjects at B |

How to use this route
The USA overview and the Accounting and Finance course page publish different Year 1 SAT totals. Both describe Year 1 testing as optional. Do not treat 1050 as a university-wide compulsory cutoff, or use the Year 1 threshold for Year 2. Confirm the course and entry year with admissions when the published references differ.
