Quick Reference for Testing Requirements
Yale College Class of 2011 Applicants
Please check the full information about Single Choice Early Action and the Regular Decision process available at our application web site. As a quick reference, Yale currently requires either the SAT I examination (with the new Writing component) plus any two of the SAT II subject examinations. In substitution for the SAT I and/or the SAT II, Yale will also accept the ACT examination (with the new Writing component).
International students and students for whom English is not a first language should check here for full details relevant to their testing requirements.
Transfer Applicants
Please check the full information available at our web site for transfer applications. Yale currently requires transfer applicants to have taken either the SAT I or the ACT, plus the TOEFL if English is not your first language and if you have not been taught in English for the past four years. If you took either the SAT I or the ACT before the new Writing components were added, Yale will accept score reports for these older examinations.
