Regents drop class rank from admissions score

Information from the Iowa College Aid

Regents drop class rank from admissions score

The Iowa Board of Regents is dropping class rank from the Regent Admission Index (RAI) for all students. The change will begin affecting applications for the summer 2020 term. One reason for the change is that a growing number of high schools no longer assign a class rank.
The RAI determines whether an Iowa high school graduate will be automatically admitted to a Regent university. The current standard RAI formula uses ACT score, high school class rank, GPA and number of courses completed in core subject areas. (An alternative formula omits class rank for students whose schools do not assign them.)
