the standardized tests were unfair to applicants who could not afford preparation classes and tutors, or whose first language was not English.

If the university courses are going to be in English, isn't it reasonable to test how well someone can comprehend English?

Yes, it would actually be unfair to the person with a poorer grasp of English to take his money despite him not having the prerequisite skills to succeed at college.
