Florida’s university system has given the green light for public colleges to use the Classic Learning Test (CLT) in admissions, allowing an exam touted by conservatives as reinforcing Western ideals and seen as a pushback against leftist undermining of educational standards.

The CLT assessment, an alternative to college entry exams such as the SAT and ACT, has grown in popularity among homeschooled students and has been widely accepted by Christian schools for some time.
