The University of California system will continue not to require widely-used tests to decide which students it will accept. The nine University of California schools that accept undergraduates will not use the SAT and ACT standardized tests and has no plans to require them in the future. A standardized test is an examination that is given to a large number of people to compare their abilities. There are over 200,000 undergraduate students within the University of California system. An undergraduate is a student who is working toward their first college degree. The well-known schools in the system include the University of California-Berkeley, the University of California-Los Angeles - UCLA - and the University of California Santa Barbara. The University of California system is run by a Board of Regents. Most are appointed by the state’s governor. In mid-November, the Board of Regents said it was not able to find a good replacement for the SAT or ACT tests. The group said there would not be a new test anytime soon.
