Universities are increasingly dropping GRE requirements for online master's programs in data science to lower barriers for applicants, enabling a wider range of candidates to pursue higher education.
The elimination of GRE tests has prompted schools to focus on alternative metrics for admission, aiming to assure that candidates are adequately prepared for the academic rigors ahead.
Research suggests that standardized tests like the GRE do not effectively predict success in graduate school and may perpetuate inequities, specifically among underrepresented minorities.
None of the 23 ranked online master's in data science programs by Fortune require GRE scores, highlighting a major shift towards inclusivity in higher education admissions.
