Schools that require you send all standardized tests

Applying to College

Does anyone have a list of the schools that require a student send all standardized tests (ACT or SAT) taken?
If not, can we build one?

I believe MIT is one.

Georgetown is another (source).

Georgetown is the only.

MIT says “should.” However, for AP scores, MIT does require all to be reported.

Well that’s a short list! Thank you!

(For my money, if a school says “should”, it is essentially required. At the info session I went to on campus last year, they made a point of highlighting this. Admittedly I don’t know if they said students are required to send all scores or should send them all.)

Another sort of…Wake Forest is test optional but if you elect to submit they request scotes from all tests.

I believe that Bates College is test optional during the application process, but requires enrolled students to report their SAT/ACT scores to the college after enrollment.

This is true of a lot of schools. Send scores when you matriculate, so they can track data, even for TO schools.

But I think that’s more universally true of SAT/ACT scores. I think that at most schools, you still have the option to report only the APs you want to report.

This is universally true for colleges that allow self reporting. But that’s not what the OP asked. They asked which colleges require all scores to be reported/sent

Yes, but @LatteLatte5 was talking about TO applicants. So If you apply TO (and thus don’t self-report), Bates (and many other schools) want you to send test scores anyway. Has nothing to do with admission - just data collection.

Of course, if you do self-report, they definitely want score verification.

Yes, but @LatteLatte5 isn’t the OP. So bringing in info that wasn’t asked about is off-topic to the thread

Thanks for the clarification, I misunderstood the OP’s question.

If a student didn’t take a test though, there is no requirement to report one upon matriculation.

Good point. I was told by Northwestern when calling about something “optional” they told me" it’s only optional if you make it optional". That stuck with me. Another school told me “optional could mean you just don’t want to”.
