Test policy

Test optional Applicants may choose whether to send a score.

Kenyon has adopted a test-optional policy for all students applying for admission; SAT/ACT scores (official or self-reported) may be submitted and are superscored. International applicants whose instruction was not in English must submit an English proficiency exam. (Verified on the official admissions website on 2026-11-06.)
