Schools from California to Massachusetts say the tests do not accurately predict students' academic success.

An increasing number of colleges and universities are canceling spring break amid concerns about travel during the coronavirus pandemic.
While many bigger universities in cities decided to start off with remote learning, smaller campuses in smaller towns — like Colby College in Waterville, Maine, and Middlebury College in Middlebury, Vermont — welcomed students with negative test results back, betting that the relative isolation could keep infections at bay.
Some colleges have seemingly cracked the code.

And it’s going to be different this admission season. It may well be different forevermore.
A pandemic returns the focus to what matters: education.

“They got to have the capability of doing the testing to begin with. They got to have the capability of doing surveillance testing, as you get into the school year, and they have to have a plan of how they handle the inevitability of some students who are going to wind up getting affected” Fauci said.
Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious diseases, laid out how colleges and universities should successfully open, and the conditions that he feels would be necessary for sending his own children onto a college campus, in a phone interview with CNN.

As U.S. high schoolers prepare to submit millions of applications to the nation’s colleges and universities, they’re facing an unpredictable admissions cycle. Everything from standardized tests to extracurricular activities has changed, upending the application process and making the already stressful experience of getting into college even more nerve-wracking.
"This will be a college search season like no other."
The consensus among health experts is that it’s easier to isolate sick or exposed students and trace their contacts if they stay put. Sending students home risks exposing other people there as well as along the way, and makes contact tracing all but impossible.
Colleges should isolate students and contain coronavirus outbreaks on campus should they arise, rather than send them home where the virus can spread, according to public health experts.
As U.S. universities attempt to bring students back to campus amid the coronavirus pandemic, students facing restrictions to college life or remote learning are questioning the amount they’re paying to attend.

The return of students to Syracuse, however, has gone mostly according to plan, and the first week has generated growing hope among faculty members that, despite their doubts, they might be able to get through the semester uninterrupted.
As other parts of the country have seen college reopening plans fail within a week, Central New York's colleges have gotten off to a good start, shifting the optimism of some faculty members.
Yale students in Barbados. Michigan students in Brooklyn. Berkeley students in Las Vegas? Off-campus housing is way off-campus now.

But what if we flipped the question? Instead of lamenting “why now?”, what if we asked, “now, why?” Though difficult, and tragic for many families, the disruption of this crisis invites us all to pause and reflect in some manner.

If your teen is starting off their college experience in 2020, I genuinely feel for you. This “back to school” process has been painful. You have every right to be feeling all of the emotions that you’ve been feeling.
