Good morning,
We have a question in reference to the Board of Regents Policy (301.A) on admission that states:
A. Students must have graduated from a high school accredited by the state accrediting agency, OR have a high school equivalency completion assessment designated by the Montana Board of Public Education to be admitted to any campus of the Montana University System. At the discretion of the institution, for students who complete their secondary education through home schooling or at unaccredited secondary schools, this requirement may be met by “satisfactory performance” on the ACT, SAT, or a recognized testing instrument defined in the Federal Register as indicative of a student’s “ability to benefit.”
If we can admit these students based on "satisfactory performance" on a recognized testing instrument – what is your interpretation (cut-score) to define "satisfactory" and is it on the ACT, SAT, and/or Compass exam?
Can you tell me what your institutional process is for identifying “satisfactory performance” in order to admit home-schooled students or those receiving a diploma from an unaccredited secondary school?
Thank you -
Brittany
