The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), a part of The University of Alabama System, announced a plan today to accommodate ACT/SAT Test-Optional Admissions for 2021 and 2022. This adjustment to admission standards is being made to address the COVID-19 pandemic which has impacted the ability of some prospective college students to take standardized ACT or SAT tests for college admissions.
"UAH understands that many high school students are experiencing difficulties in accessing standardized tests for college admissions and is giving applicants the option to submit test-optional applications where standardized tests are not required for admission," says Dr. Christine Curtis, UAH Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs.
