They recognise how difficult it has been to take these tests due to the pandemic, and instead will look for either 3 APs or 3 SAT subject tests or a combination of these. Additionally, one of the above APs or SAT subject tests can be replaced with an honours class or a college-level class at B+ or higher. For example, 2 APs and an honours class is acceptable.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.york.ac.uk\/study\/international\/your-country\/usa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Guidance here<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Changes to PGT reference requirements:&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">York will no longer need a reference for PGT applicants as a default.
