UMass Amherst Testing Policy

Test Optional: Yes

Self-Reporting Allowed: Yes

The University of Massachusetts at Amherst is test optional, allowing applicants the choice to submit standardized test scores. It also permits self reporting of scores, meaning students can provide their own reported results without needing to submit official scores. Approximately 27% of applicants choose to submit SAT scores, while 3.9% submit ACT scores; the combined percentage suggests that some students are submitting both types of scores.
