Updated 8/2/22 Standardized testing requirements and the college admissions landscape change frequently. At Private Prep, we want our students and families to be as informed as possible about these changes so that they can ultimately make the best decisions about their test prep and college admissions plans. To that end, we have compiled new and noteworthy standardized test policy changes in a central place below. The majority of colleges and universities in the United States remain test optional through the 2022-23 application cycle. Notable exceptions include: Who isn’t test-optional?
Many of the colleges and universities with current test optional policies are piloting test optional programs through the end of 2023. As a result, testing requirements for the class of 2024 remain unknown in many cases. While we expect that a large group of colleges will decide to remain test optional — ultimately, it helped them boost application numbers — we don’t yet know exactly which colleges will extend their policies. For a complete list of schools with test-optional and test-flexible policies, visit fairtest.org.

Post navigationMinimum Admission Requirements: U.S. Senior Year/Grade 12 in an accredited high school with a high grade point average. We expect competitive applicants to be enrolled in a rigorous academic course load, and to have taken the highest level of course available to them in pre-requisite subjects. Test optional assessment has been adopted for students applying for Fall 2022 and 2023 admission. Students who cannot or choose not to submit test results will not be disadvantaged in the admissions process; however, students who have written SAT or ACT tests previously, and wish to have these considered in their assessment, are encouraged to submit their scores. We recognize that students who submit SAT or ACT results may have experienced interruptions in their preparations for these tests, and that testing opportunities have been (and continue to be) limited in many locations. Results will be considered in this context. Prerequisite subjects, including English, should be presented at Senior Year/Grade 12 level or AP/IB. SAT Subject Tests cannot be used to satisfy prerequisites. Calculus 12 or AP Calculus or 1 semester of college or university Calculus is required for most math, science, computer science, and commerce programs. Precalculus cannot be used to satisfy the Calculus prerequisite. AP Statistics does not provide the appropriate preparation. SAT, ACT and AP scores should be sent to us electronically. SAT and AP institution code is 0982 and ACT institution code is 5366. Transfer credit may be awarded for your Advanced Placement examinations and/or International Baccalaureate Higher Level subjects.
