Test policyEarlham College adopted a test-optional policy in 2011 and no longer requires students to submit standardized test scores (either SAT or ACT) with other materials in support of their application for admission. Under Earlham's test-optional policy, applicants can submit their scores and choose to have them considered or ask that the scores not be taken into account during review for admission. Earlham accepts the best score on each section of a student's test. Students indicate their preference for use of test results on the Earlham section of the Common Application and may elect to consult with the Earlham Admission Staff about their decision. Test score results are also not required by Earlham for review of admitted students for merit scholarships.
