The Residual ACT is an on-campus testing program for colleges that wish to administer the ACT tests to their enrolled, admitted or applicant students. The R-ACT is administered in a group testing setting. Results are reported only to the college administering the tests. No Student Reports are generated and you may not request additional score reports for any other college. MVNU will be the only college to receive your test scores. The R-ACT consists of four multiple choice tests given for each of the following areas: English, Mathematics, Reading, and Science.

In order to be eligible to take the Residual ACT, students must have submitted an application for admission to MVNU.

Keep the following in mind:
  • You must bring an ACT-approved photo ID with you on testing day.
  • The cost to take the Residual ACT is $53.00. A check or money order needs to be made payable to MVNU. Payment is due on the day of testing.
  • The Residual ACT scores only count for MVNU admission and scholarships. They will not be sent to any other college or university and cannot be used for any national scholarships.
  • Residual ACT scores can be used for MVNU academic scholarships provided the deadlines are met. Contact MVNU Financial Aid for the latest scholarship information.
  • The residual ACT cannot be used to establish eligibility for intercollegiate athletics by NAIA rules.
