Top-notch colleges in the US are dropping a major admissions requirement
On Monday, George Washington University became the latest school to drop the requirement for incoming freshmen, the Washington Post reported.
That makes GWU - with 10,000 undergraduates and 25,000 total students - the largest private university in the top 100 best ranked schools to forego rigid testing requirements in favor of a more holistic application review process.
The National Center for Fair and Open Testing tracks the schools with open testing policies and has compiled a list of over 800 schools that do not use SAT or ACT scores for admitting substantial numbers of students into bachelor degree programs.
Some of the most most well-regarded schools on their list include:
- American University
- Bates College
- Bowdoin College
- Bryn Mawr
- Colby College
- Hamilton College
- Middlebury College
- New York University
- Smith College
- Wake Forest University
- Wesleyan University
