FairTest applauds the decision of Columbia and William&Mary to make test optional policies permanent. Hopefully other admissions offices who have not yet joined the party will follow suit. washingtonpost.com/education/2023…

fox5ny.com/video/1188729 FairTest applauding Columbia's decision to go permanently test optional in a Fox5 news segment. Can we finally dispel the notion that the SAT/ACT are "objective" measures of college admission worthiness.

cbsnews.com/live/video/202… FairTest discussing test optional on CBS News. Makes the case for holistic evaluation. Given correlation with family income and race, and narrow skillset assessed, relying on SAT/ACT for admissions is very bad policy.
