#6 SELF-REPORTED DATA The CUNY Application must feature the
ability for students to self-report
academic data such as SAT/ACT,
Regents, and TOEFL test scores, grades,
and class rank. Students should be
made aware how this information will be
used in the admission review and how
verification will take place.

media. Social media buttons could allow students to share the excitement of
applying to college with their friends and family while they are still “in the moment.”
