Counselor Corner Update for CSU SAT/ACT Requirements:  The CSU Board of Trustees unanimously approved the Committee on Educational  Policy's  resolution to amend Title 5 of the California Code of Regulations to remove SAT and ACT standardized tests from undergraduate admissions. The board's action eliminates standardized tests in the university's undergraduate admissions processes.   The CSU is now TEST FREE!   Read the   press release  to learn more about this important vote. The   CSU Undergraduate Admissions and Standardized Tests site   has additional details as well.  Any submitted test scores by   admitted   students would be considered   only   for purposes of student placement in math or English courses.  During the temporary suspension of testing through the pandemic, CSU campuses and programs have used   multiple factors   to augment GPAs, using a Multiple Factor Admission Score.

Example 1- An ECHS student has a high school class in the 1600 hallway (Mrs. Williamson&#
