Test Optional Applications
Lewis University has adopted a test-optional admission policy for incoming first-year for all our academic programs. We acknowledge that test scores often do not portray the student’s full ability and potential for academic success. Test Optional applicants will not be required to submit standardized test scores from the ACT or SAT to gain admission or be considered for merit scholarships, but official scores will be requested before registering for registering for Lewis classes. At that point, scores are collected and used for the purpose of course placement and/or institutional research.
