Drake U Drops Test Requirement for Admissions

Drake University announced Wednesday that it is dropping the SAT/ACT requirement for undergraduate applicants with a 3.0 high school grade point average. Those who opt not to submit test scores will need to be interviewed by an admissions staff member, either on campus or through video. Tom Delahunt, vice president for admission and student financial planning, said in a statement: "The test-flexible option ensures that applicants are able to showcase strengths and attributes that test scores cannot reflect."
