New ACT Program
In TLC District
Formation of the new American
College Testing Program in Tex-
as, in which TLC and 67 other
Texas colleges and universities
participate, was announced this
week by Alton B. Lee, Registrar
and Director of Admissions of
Baylor University.
These colleges and universities
require, recommend, or accept
ACT scores from their applicants
for admission, according to Lee,
who is state coordinator for the
program.
Results of the test are used by
some 500 colleges and universities
participating in the nationwide
American College Testing Pro-
gram with which the Texas divi-
sion is affiliated.
Colleges participating in this
program use results in student
guidance, admissions, and in the
awarding of scholarship aid to
the applicants, as well as in plac-
ing freshmen in classes or pro-
grams suited to their ability.
The three-hour test, to be given
Saturday, Nov. 5. has four parts
that yield five scores—a compr-
site scoi-e indicating overall col-
lege potential, and four separam
scores indicating levels of general
capability in English, mathema-
tics, social studies, and the nat-
ural sciences.
