Test Optional and Test Free Colleges
Many Colleges and Universities no longer require students to submit SAT or ACT scores with their applications. The list continues to grow. Which schools are in this group, and which still require test scores to be submitted? FairTest has put together a great online resource that lists the 1,800+ Test-Optional schools and the 80+schools that are entirely Test-Free. As the restrictions column indicates, some schools only exempt applicants who meet minimum grade or class rank criteria; others use ACT/SAT scores solely for course placement. Please check with individual schools for details. Here is the link: https://fairtest.org/test-optional-list/
