Do I NEED THE SAT OR ACT FOR MY COLLEGE APPLICATIONS? Most colleges and
universities have decided to make the SAT and ACT optional for students
applying to attend school in '22-'23. Please check here
<https://www.fairtest.org/university/optional/state> for regular updates on
colleges that are test-optional; if a college is not on the list, students
should search online to see the most current admissions information.
