Statement from UC Academic Senate Chair Ahmet Palazoglu on review of UC admissions
"The Academic Senate's comprehensive review of the University's undergraduate admissions policies will align with the Board of Regents' timeline to deliver a policy recommendation on the use of standardized tests in admissions by the end of the 2026-27 academic year (June 2027 for our campuses based on the quarter system). The separate review of UC's A-G framework is not tied to the same timeline. A new plan from the Academic Senate will be available after the Academic Council meeting on July 22, 2026. The goal of this A-G policy review is to consider how UC defines and evaluates college readiness in a rapidly changing educational environment."
