Here's another article, an older one, about a week before... Link: https://www.k12dive.com/news/act-assessm...ns/713450/

ACT partners with private equity firm, will transition to for-profit

The change will have no effect on the price of the ACT college admissions test or students’ experience with it, the organization said.

Hmm, that seems like a very carefully worded statement.
