April 17, 2:15 p.m. The California State University system is suspending the use of SAT and ACT scores in admissions through the 2021-22 academic year.
To be eligible to apply to system institutions without test scores, students must be first-time freshmen who are high school graduates or equivalent. They must have completed the 15-unit comprehensive college preparatory course pattern and earn qualifying grades, according to a news release.
"The California State University has provided access to a high-quality education for millions of Californians from all walks of life, and we will continue to fulfill our academic mission even during these most trying of times," Timothy White, chancellor of the system, said in the release. "This temporary change will ensure equitable access to the university, and should provide some measure of relief to prospective students and their families."
