Gov. Gavin Newsom last month signed Assembly Bill 1780, banning private colleges across the state from considering legacy students when accepting students into a university.
In light of this, the student bar association at the University of La Verne held its affirmative action panel on Nov. 3 in the Morgan Auditorium. About 40 people showed up for the event.
All UCs will no longer consider SAT or ACT test scores when making admissions decisions or awarding scholarships. This is a good move for many reasons.
With college decision season approaching faster than ever, University of La Verne student employee Jose Jimenez introduced potential new students to the campus, giving a tour of Citrus Hall dorm rooms April 9.
In 2021 the University of La Verne will go to a test-optional admissions policy, which means that applicants will have a choice of including their SAT or ACT test scores along with their applications – or not.
