University of Washington's SAT requirement?

Just wondering, but does the University of Washington still require SAT scores for admissions? I'm planning my applications and I'm a little bit confused. Advice, please?

For the 2024-2025 application cycle, the University of Washington (UW) has maintained its test-optional policy. This means that submitting your SAT scores is not a mandatory requirement of your application. However, if you have taken the SAT and you feel that your scores accurately reflect your academic ability and potential, you are free to include them in your application.

Keep in mind, even without standardized test scores, the university will still conduct a comprehensive review of your application. They will look at your high school transcripts, course rigor, your essays, and involvement in extracurricular activities. They seek to understand your context—including the opportunities available to you and the ways you've engaged with them.

Lastly, be sure to confirm this policy by visiting the UW admissions website closer to your application time. Admissions policies can change from year to year, information from official university resources always beats third-party information. Best of luck with your applications!
