UW drops the SAT/ACT for admission PERMANENTLY

Big news today from the University of Washington. The UW will no longer require standardized test scores for freshman admissions beginning with the class of 2021, making permanent a change that was made due to the lack of testing sites because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“The UW is dedicated to creating opportunities for the most promising students to learn and discover how they can make an impact,” UW President Ana Mari Cauce said. “Careful analysis and research showed that standardized testing did not add meaningfully to the prediction of student success that our holistic admission process already provides.”
