Promoting Classical Learning Act of 2025
This bill requires military service academies (like West Point) to accept scores from the Classical Learning Test (CLT) alongside the SAT or ACT for admissions. It also mandates that Department of Defense schools (DODEA) and Bureau of Indian Education schools administer the CLT to all 11th-grade students. The law directly affects applicants to military academies and 11th graders in specific federal schools. Key provisions change testing requirements by making the CLT a standard option for admissions and a required assessment in targeted schools, without eliminating other tests.
