<p>What are the colleges that look most at personal attributes and unquantifiable strengths? In other words, which colleges don’t merely look at test scores and GPAs, but instead view the applicant as a whole person?</p>
<p>I know that Sarah Lawrence doesn’t even accept test scores. I would guess that all of the Colleges That Change Lives are very holistic in the approach too, as well as all of the SAT-optional schools.</p>
<p>Thanks, jarsilver. Anyone else?</p>
<p>If you’re female, Smith College looks at the whole person. Also, Smith no longer requires SAT or ACT scores for US applicants.</p>
<p>Don’t some of the Claremont colleges have a policy of test scores being optional?</p>
