Bryn Mawr Included in Roundup of Top Colleges That Don't Require SAT/ACT

October 2, 2015

Bryn Mawr is among the schools featured in the MTV news article Almost 200 Top Tier Colleges Don’t Require SAT Scores — Yes, Really

From the article:

Bryn Mawr is actually a new addition to the ever-growing list, adopting its SAT-optional policy in 2014 for students within the U.S.

“We review their applications holistically,” Peaches Valdes, Bryn Mawr’s Dean of Undergraduate Admissions, told MTV News. “For us, their transcript will still weigh the most, because that tells us a student’s ability to meet the academic demands of the college but also show us their ability to balance academic work, extracurricular activities — simply being a teenager — rather than evaluating how do they perform on a Saturday morning at 8 a.m. providing information on a very narrow subject.”
