Hey everyone! So I've been wondering, does UCLA look at SAT scores when they evaluate applicants? I know some schools have gone test-optional recently and I wanna make sure I'm set for my application.
Hi there! UCLA, along with all other University of California (UC) schools, adopted a test-blind policy starting back in the 2021-2022 admissions cycle. This means that they do not consider SAT or ACT scores at all in their admissions process. So, you won't need to worry about sending in those scores for your UCLA application.
Instead, focus on other aspects of your application, such as your GPA, course rigor, extracurricular activities, personal insight questions, and any other materials they might request. Good luck with your UCLA application!
