University of California to Conduct New Review of SAT's Role in Undergraduate Admissions by June 2027

The University of California system is set to conduct a new review of the SAT's role in undergraduate admissions, with findings expected by June 2027. This comes amidst ongoing discussions and a push from a growing number of professors, particularly in STEM fields, to reinstate standardized tests like the SAT or ACT as requirements for undergraduate admissions. The UC Board of Regents had removed these exams from the admissions process in 2020.
