What is the Digital SAT 2026?

🏫 Why the SAT Still Matters for US Students in 2026
After a brief test-optional wave during COVID, elite US universities — MIT, Yale, Dartmouth, UT Austin, Florida, Georgia Tech, and 80+ others — have reinstated SAT/ACT requirements as of 2024–2026. A strong score can unlock merit scholarships worth $20,000–$60,000+ at many schools.
