Students applying to Gonzaga University will not need to submit SAT or ACT scores to be considered for the fall 2021 semester, as many testing opportunities have been canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Gonzaga said Tuesday it will continue reviewing applications “holistically,” accounting for applicants’ courses, grades, writing and extracurricular activities, including part-time jobs.

Gonzaga noted some high schools have switched to a “pass or fail” grading system while students take courses online. The university said “pass” grades won’t disadvantage students in the admission process.

Gonzaga students also are taking courses online, and the university has postponed graduation ceremonies until September due to the pandemic.
