List of test-optional colleges grows to 775

September

FairTest, an organization that promotes using alternate ways toÂ assess children, has finished compiling a list of more than 775 colleges and universities that no longer require either the SAT or the ACT test for admission.

The information comes from a report released today by the National Association for College Admissions Counseling.

The list is regularly updated by FairTest and is available free online at http://www.fairtest.org/university/optional

For those still interested in taking the SAT and ACT exams, the first national administration of the SAT for the 2008-09 academic year is Oct. 4; the ACT is offered on Oct. 25, according to the FairTest press release.
