Columbia University will again force applicants to submit their SAT or ACT scores for admissions starting next year after faculty determined the results were “useful indicators of potential student success,” officials announced Friday. The leafy Morningside Heights campus is the final Ivy League school to reverse course and demand the standardized tests after the policies were mostly dropped during the COVID pandemic. “Through a multi-year faculty review, it was determined that test scores, among other factors, were a useful indicator of potential student success,” the school said.
