University of California (UC) admissions policies that require all applicants to take SAT or ACT tests discriminate against disadvantaged students, two lawsuits recently filed in the Superior Court allege.
The identical lawsuits—one launched by four students and six civil rights groups, and the other by Compton Unified School District—claim that the UC is depriving “least privileged” low-income, multilingual, disabled, and underrepresented minority students of their civil rights.
