The new coronavirus pandemic has thrown the regular cycle of SAT and ACT exams into question. Test days have been canceled, test sites temporarily shuttered and concerns raised about ensuring that all students have equal access when tests are administered.
In response, many Texas universities are becoming “test-optional” through 2021, waiving the traditional requirement for test scores to gain admission. The University of Texas at Austin, Baylor University, Texas Tech University, Texas Christian University, Southern Methodist University and St. Edward's University have all temporarily scrapped their testing requirements through 2021.
Some universities that were doubting the value of test scores even before the pandemic see an opportunity to change the admissions process altogether. In Austin, St. Edward's University had been planning to permanently waive ACT and SAT requirements for months, said Dean of Admissions Drew Nichols.
“We have come to find out the SAT is not exactly predictive of whether or not a student is successful on our campus,” Nichols said, adding that students with low scores often have a stellar first semester and vice versa.
Advocates say going test-optional will remove barriers imposed by COVID-19 and ultimately boost a college’s racial and socioeconomic diversity. Nichols himself sees it as a way to “invite more students into the pool.”
Across the country, many other colleges are following a similar path. Most of the eight Ivy League colleges have already announced test-optional policies through 2021. The University of California system made headlines last month when it announced its campuses would begin phasing out the ACT and SAT immediately. By 2025, university officials hope to make both exams obsolete.
