With the SAT and ACT test dates in April and May canceled, Saint Vincent College has waived standardized test scores as a requirement for fall 2020 admission, effective March 30.

“Students should not be penalized for circumstances that are beyond their control,” said Heather Kabala, Saint Vincent College dean of admission, in a prepared statement.

In place of these tests, students must submit a writing assignment demonstrating their abilities, complete a personal essay or schedule a virtual interview with an admission counselor.
