Interesting. Schools continue to drop the essay requirement. I’m sure many rising seniors have already taken the ACT or SAT with essay, but for those who have not, UMichigan may see and even higher number of applicants.
Surprised they never mentioned that during campus visit a few weeks ago.
we specifically asked the question, “I am taking the SAT one more time just for the writing section, does the actual SAT score matter from this test.” He said not at all. He could have hinted that this was coming and save us a few bucks.
@Kadel1023 they must of just made the change. Also we noticed last year they had a few things in engineering not updated on their websites and we brought that to their attention then they made the change. Had more to do with cross campus transfers not freshman admission anyway.
Here is what the freshman admission site says now and no mention of writing scores like previous years.
