I've been researching colleges lately and one that's caught my eye is Lehigh University. With all the COVID-19 stuff happening, I was wondering if they've gone test-optional? If so, will it only be for the upcoming application cycle or will it continue for future cycles?
Lehigh University has adopted a test-optional policy indefinitely. Applicants are not required to submit SAT or ACT scores in their application, though they still have the option to do so if they believe their scores reflect their academic capabilities.
