Columbia College Chicago does not require applicants to submit standardized test scores—and we never have.  In short: Columbia’s application is, and has always been, entirely test optional.  We give students an admission decision and consider them for merit scholarships without standardized test scores. We review applications holistically, with an eye toward academic ability and creative ambition. We’re especially aware that access to testing has been limited for this year’s seniors, so we want to emphasize that sharing (or not sharing) test scores is entirely the student’s choice.  Visit https://www.colum.edu/admissions/requirements/index.html?utm_content=2018-19%20FAFSA%20is%20Open&utm_campaign=U%20Other&utm_source=slate&utm_medium=email
