I think they said at Freshman Day that everyone has to take College Writing now, regardless of AP scores or SAT scores. They felt like the students weren’t prepared for the type of writing that was required of them, even if they had strong writing skills as measured on those tests.

For what it’s worth, that’s also true at Harvard.

Every student takes “Expos”; the requirement cannot be met by a standardized test score or by advanced writing courses taken before you arrive at Harvard.
