By Jensen Rader, iHeartMedia May 17, 2021 The University of California will no longer consider SAT or ACT scores when making admission and scholarship decisions. In a settlement finalized Friday, the ten-campus system said it would not fight a judge's injunction that barred it from considering the scores. The UC Board of Regents voted 23 to 0 in favor of phasing out the tests, according to the idea proposed by President Janet Napolitano. It's all part of a lawsuit filed against the UC system back in 2019 on behalf of low-income students of color, and students with disabilities, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. SAT and ACT scores may still be required for placement in courses. The settlement noted that within five years, the UC system either needs to create a new standard test or completely remove that requirement.
