[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, when applying to UMD a candidate can send the SAT score (if that's good enough) or not. The acceptance criteria don't take into consideration that score at all, right? If that's the case, how do they decide who's academically fit? High School grades? [/quote] Test optional schools do consider SAT/ACT if sent in, but if not, they have lots of other factors to consider. For 2021-2022, this was the info from UMD's common data set. Very Important: Rigor of secondary school record Academic GPA Standardized test scores Important: Class rank Application essay Recommendation(s0 Talent/ability First generation State residency Considered: Extracurricular activities Character/personal qualities Alumni/ae relation Geographical residence Racial/ethnic status Volunteer work Work experience Not Considered: Interview Religious affiliation/commitment Level of applicant's interest [/quote]
