SAT, ACT scores not mandatory for UG admissions at Columbia University

For students who choose to submit testing, Columbia’s testing policies remain the same. However, for students who choose not to submit test scores will not be at a disadvantage in our process, the university stated.

“We will continue to evaluate all submitted information within an individualized application review process that considers the unique combination of circumstances shaping each applicant’s journey. The rigor of a student’s curriculum, their academic achievement and their demonstrated intellectual curiosity will remain central to our review,” the university website states.
