Fresno Unified students see increased UC admissions as state debates future of SAT requirements

Students from Fresno Unified schools are experiencing a rise in admissions to University of California campuses, a trend attributed by school counselors to proactive admissions strategies. This development occurs amidst an ongoing statewide debate regarding standardized testing, with the UC system's admissions board expected to issue a recommendation on requiring SAT or ACT scores by June 2027. The board is also preparing a report on high school course requirements, with potential changes to be considered by the UC Board of Regents next year.
