Students applying to colleges in the future will now be graded not just on their academic merits, but also on how privileged they were in obtaining their education. All applicants utilizing the SATs will receive, in addition to their regular scores, a single number score ranging from 1 to 100 that represents how privileged they are. A lower score indicates an applicant is more privileged and conversely a lower score indicates the applicant is less privileged.

This score will be sent directly to the schools the students have applied to and the students will not be made aware of their privilege score.

This new scoring system made a trial run in a number of schools this year, likely effecting the enrollment at those schools, and this system will be rolled out nationwide for all schools using the SATs from now on.
