A small but growing number of colleges have adopted “test-blind” admissions policies in recent years. These colleges do not consider SAT or ACT scores when making admission decisions. These policies aim to create a more diverse and inclusive student body by removing barriers to access for low-income and first-generation college students. 

Concluded that going test-blind helped increase both racial and economic diversity on campus. The study found that 19% of Black and Latino students were admitted to Pomona under its old policy; that number jumped to 35% under the new policy. In addition, 16% of admitted students came from families earning less than $40,000 per year; under the new policy, that number rose to 28%.
