【转】Below is a list of some of the top liberal arts colleges and universities with their decisions as to whether they will accept the current (“old”) SAT for the class of 2017, whether or not they will require the “optional” essay, and whether or not they will “super score” across both versions of the SAT (Note: when a college “super scores” the SAT, it takes the highest section of Reading, Math, and Writing from multiple test sittings and combines them for a composite “super score”). If they are listed as “yes” or “no,” that means that an admissions officer confirmed the school’s decision. A note of “likely” or “not likely” indicates that they are leaning toward an affirmative or negative position, and “undecided” means that the college has not yet decided. As we gather more data about these and other colleges, we will keep you updated.

Although no college has stated that it will not accept the current SAT for the class of 2017, many are taking different approaches to the new test. For example, Wesleyan University, a test optional school that does not currently require the ACT writing portion, will not require the optional redesigned SAT essay. Boston College will super score across the two versions of the SAT, but Auburn University will limit its super scoring either to the old or the new version. Finally, Carnegie Mellon prefers that students take the old SAT during his/her junior year. They will still take a sophomore sitting, but would prefer that their applicants submit junior/senior scores. By contrast, UPenn will accept the current SAT as long as the test was taken within 5 years of the student’s application.
