In the Media: New York Times Highlights Scripps’ Decision to Waive Standardized Test Admission Requirements

The New York Times highlighted Scripps as one of a growing number of colleges and universities that have shifted to “test optional” admission, waiving SAT and ACT requirements for prospective students. “This decision supports the College’s mission to provide access to a distinctive education for students who will thrive at Scripps,” the College said in a statement last month. “The admission staff believes this policy provides a better admission standard for exceptional students who apply to Scripps and helps ensure that our academic and residential community will continue to flourish.”
