The COVID-19 pandemicchanged the way a lot of universities operate, especially in the area of student admissions. Priorto the pandemic, some universities were moving to a test blind approach to admissions. Whenthe pandemic hit, many students were not able to take the ACT or SAT, and they were unable toprovide scores. As a response, Marian University was forced to go test blind on admissions, andthat policy was implemented permanently. At
