I mean…Columbia went permanently TO. Cornell announced that it’s extending TO. Michigan is permanently TO. The UC schools are permanently test-blind. Amherst, Pomona, and a number of other top-ranked SLACs are permanently TO. The vast majority of schools outside the ~50 people on here talk about are still TO and don’t seem to be signaling any change.

I think testing is going to come back for a small subset of schools that have huge numbers of applications and want to use tests to cull applicants easily, and at public schools in some red states.

I think the “TO is over” folks are reading the evidence very selectively.[/quote]

I don't think TO is over. Too much easy money for most colleges to give up. It will just morph into "Test preferred but pretend we are TO". Given the opaqueness of the admission process, what are you going to do, sue them?  :lol:  :lol:  Based on what? Just take the test folks.. It's not rocket science.[/quote]
