2025H 918

Challenging the Standardized-Testing Duopoly

2025 - North Carolina House of Representatives

Conservatives Support

Description

H 918 instructs the North Carolina Collaboratory to study including the Classic Learning Test (CLT) as an admissions option for the University of North Carolina system. The CLT was created as an answer to the criticisms directed at the SAT and ACT, which have suffered from declining standards in recent years. CPAC believes that disrupting the standardized-testing duopoly will benefit students and supports this bill. The North Carolina House of Representatives passed H 918 on second reading on May 6, 2025, in an 84-25 vote. The measure is awaiting further action in the Committee on Rules and Operations of the Senate.
