Providence College will announce today that it will no longer require undergraduate applicants to submit SAT or ACT scores. Officials said that they feared the test score requirement even though it has not been a major focus of the admissions process may have discouraged some low-income students from applying. The move follows an earlier announcement that the college was shifting funds from merit to need-based aid as part of a campaign to close the student accessibility gap.
