Bill overview
This bill seeks to allow the Massachusetts Department of Higher Education to review the practice of requiring standardized college entrance aptitude tests for admission to public colleges and universities. It aims to assess whether these tests are truly predictive of student success and whether they unfairly disadvantage certain applicants. The bill would give the Department the authority to potentially reduce or eliminate the use of these tests as a primary admissions requirement. This legislation builds on previous attempts to reform higher education admissions policies in Massachusetts.
