It joins 800+ other schools in going test-optional. They may do it for the stated reasons but they also be doing it because when colleges go test-optional, only those with high scores submit them and what does that do? Raise accepted scores and improve rankings.

It seems to me that with this and the newish merit scholarships, Temple is making a move to up its rank and attract high-stats students.
