Cornell University announced Monday that it would be reinstating standardized testing four years after axing the requirement.

The university removed the requirement for standardized testing in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. Since then, however, multiple schools have begun bringing the tests back for the admissions process and Cornell announced that as of fall 2026 scores will be required for those “seeking undergraduate admission.”

Many universities opted to remove the requirement due to concerns about how the tests created undue hardship for minorities, those who did not speak English and lower-income families, according to NBC News.

A county judge dismissed 140 cases against migrants charged with rioting at the U.S. southern border, finding there was no reason to arrest them.

El Paso County Court at Law 7 Judge Ruben Morales on Monday found no probable cause from Texas Department of Public Safety state troopers to restrain the 140 migrants who were arrested earlier this month for rioting, according to the El Paso Times. The charges stemmed from an incident on April 12 when a group of migrants in El Paso’s Lower Valley cut through concertina wire at the border and then rushed into the U.S.

“After reviewing the affidavit, I don’t believe that (probable cause) exists,” Morales stated during the hearing, according to the El Paso Times. “I don’t believe there is probable cause for these individuals to continue to be detained for the offense of riot participation.”
