Even Harvard Says No to SATs
According to CBS news (link at end), among other news outlets, Harvard announced on December 16th that it won't require SAT or ACT scores up to 2026. It joins Columbia, Cornell, all University of California campuses and many others, which have temporarily or otherwise suspended use of such admissions exams in its undergrad acceptance evaluations (complete and updated list at end). They will still use the test scores, if students send them, but they won't be required. That has led to a flood of applications to those exclusive universities, driving down acceptance rates to half or a third of their pre-pandemic numbers. Since SAT II subject tests and the SAT I writing section have been suspended by College Board, the testing landscape seems to be following the UK admissions system of A Levels being used for college admissions, or specifically AP tests or IB diploma (or certificate) programs for those schools with IB offerings.
