MANSFIELD – In response to SAT and ACT testing sites closing
across the country due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Mansfield University of
Pennsylvania announced that it will waive the SAT/ACT test requirement for Fall
2020 admission consideration.
The university will now be test-optional, meaning students
may choose to submit test scores if they have them, but applications from
students without test scores will also be considered. The lack of test scores will not impact the
university’s evaluation of the student’s application.
“During these challenging times, we want to make sure that
all qualified applicants to Mansfield University have an equal opportunity for
admission consideration,” said Dr. Charles Patterson, President of Mansfield
University. “Students should not be disadvantaged
by their inability to take the SAT or ACT due to testing site closures.”
The waiver applies to both domestic and international students and is effective immediately. For more information, including any applicable restrictions, visit admissions.mansfield.edu.
