Many college graduate programs in California kept the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) score optional, or did not accept scores for the 2021-22 admissions cycle.
GRE, offered by Educational Testing Service (ETS), is one of the most well-known standardized tests required for the graduate admission process in the United States, Canada, and a few other countries. The GRE general test is designed to supplement the undergraduate records, recommendation letters, and other qualifications for graduate-level study.
