UC Berkeley Testing Policy

college cover

Test Optional: Yes

Self-Reporting Allowed: Yes

The University of California, Berkeley is test optional, meaning that applicants are not required to submit standardized test scores as part of their admissions process. Additionally, it allows for self-reporting of scores, which means students can report their test results without needing to submit official scores initially. Among applicants, 82% chose to submit SAT scores, while 41% submitted ACT scores; the total exceeds 100% because some students submitted both.
