Didn't he apply and probably write an essay as part of the application? Everyone is acting as if the SAT exists in a vacuum, as if there is no other way to show a student's academic quality. If Felician can't decide whether to admit a student without an SAT score, then maybe they can't judge them at all. Why can’t Felician admit or not admit him on the basis of his school record?

The student shouldn't be punished (and that's exactly what taking the SAT again is - I wonder if he'll have to pay the registration fee again?) for the mistakes of the ETS. This is ridiculous.
