SAT and ACT Testing

California State University stopped using ACT or SAT examinations in determining admission eligibility for all CSU campuses.  If accepted to a CSU campus, ACT or SAT test scores can be used as one of the measures to place students in the proper mathematics and English courses.​  ​If you have already taken and submitted your ACT or SAT scores, CSU campuses will not use them in the admission evaluation process to determine who gets admitted.
