Caltech Testing Policy

Test Optional: Yes

Self-Reporting Allowed: Yes

California Institute of Technology is test optional and allows self reporting of scores. This means that applicants can choose whether or not to submit their standardized test scores and can report their scores themselves without requiring official documentation. Notably, 100% of applicants submit SAT scores, while 42% choose to submit ACT scores. The combined percentage exceeds 100% because some students submit both SAT and ACT scores.
