Colleges and universities should be more flexible about the use of test scores and perhaps consider a lesser emphasis on such test scores when evaluating international applicants, according to a statement being released today by the National Association for College Admission Counseling, and its international division. The statement notes that many testing dates have been called off amid concerns about testing security. As a result, the statement notes, many international students have struggled to take the tests they need to apply to American colleges. The statement comes amid increased frustration from those who help internataional students apply to American colleges, and repeated calls for changes in the practices of major testing organizations.
