To be exact, the UC regents forbade the UCs from considering SAT and ACT scores. There’s no evidence that the colleges don’t find test taking ability to be worthwhile as a predictor of whether potential students will be successful. In fact they use it for other purposes (such as exemptions from introductory writing). And CalPoly specifically asks about (and appears to give bonus admission points) to NMSF qualifiers.
