Note from the editor

 
Over the last 15 months, the pandemic has forced extraordinary innovation in higher education, with one area, in particular, being colleges' admissions processes.

Though a small but fast-growing contingent of institutions was letting students apply without SAT or ACT scores before the pandemic, the crisis made the practice nearly ubiquitous among colleges, even if temporarily.

Higher Ed Dive explores this rapidly shifting landscape in a new deep dive, focusing on how institutions of all types adjusted their procedures and reviewed applications without the scores.

Proponents of test-optional admissions argue these policies will help increase access for students who higher ed has historically turned away. But the exams are ingrained in colleges' operations, making them hard to disentangle.

We welcome your feedback, and as always, thanks for reading.
