Swarthmore test-optional policy?

Hey everyone, I was wondering if Swarthmore has a test-optional policy. Will they consider my application if I don't submit my SAT or ACT scores?

7 months ago

Yes, Swarthmore College currently has a test-optional policy. This means that you can choose whether or not to submit your SAT or ACT scores as part of your application. If you feel that your test scores accurately represent your academic abilities and would strengthen your application, then you can submit them. However, if you believe your scores don't reflect your true potential, you can opt not to submit them, and Swarthmore will still give your application full consideration.

Admissions officers at Swarthmore will focus on other aspects of your application, such as your transcript, essays, extracurricular activities, and letters of recommendation, to assess your academic capabilities and potential fit with the college.

Keep in mind that such policies are always subject to change, so be sure to check official Swarthmore websites and communication channels for the most up-to-date information. Good luck with your application!
