To accommodate those students who have been (or will be) unable to take the SAT and/or ACT exams, Houston Baptist University is waiving the standardized test score requirement for those applying for Summer/Fall 2021.
Applicants who choose to opt out from submitting a standardized test score will need to write a short essay and provide a high school transcript to be considered holistically for admission to HBU; however, all applicants will still be considered for scholarships whether they submit a test score or not.
