Do the UC’s still require standardized testing for homeschoolers/out of state applicants?

From the UC website:

Home-schooled students

Many home-schooled students have been admitted to UC, and are successful and vibrant members of our community.

If you’re completing high school through home schooling, you have a few options for meeting UC admission requirements, depending on your situation.

If your home schooling curriculum is provided by a U.S. regionally accredited school (or approved by the State Board of Education) and you will receive an official transcript and high school diploma from that school:

  • You should follow the same admission requirements for students in traditional high schools in California or outside of California (depending on where you live).
  • If you cannot meet these requirements, you can be eligible by meeting requirements for admission by exam.
  • If you do not meet either the traditional admission requirements or the requirements for admission by exam, you may still be considered for admission by exception.

If your home schooling curriculum is not provided by a U.S. regionally accredited school (or approved by the State Board of Education) and you will not receive an official transcript and high school diploma from a U.S. regionally accredited school:

I would contact UC admissions to verify.
