Academic Program Requirements
The State University of New York moved to temporarily suspend SAT and ACT testing requirements for the 2022-23 cycles, as the coronavirus pandemic has upended the traditional school schedule for students.
SUNY Canton will not require SAT and ACT standardized testing for rising high school seniors enrolling in bachelor degree-granting campuses. The move will apply only to the spring 2022, fall 2022, and spring 2023 cycles only. SUNY campuses will still consider scores for students who have taken the examinations as part of their review.
