I read that there was one four year college that you can go to without taking your SAT's.  Which one is it?

You can apply to many colleges without having taken SATs.  Most community colleges, for example, will allow you to enroll.  You could start there and then transfer to a four-year school.

not nessesarily.. some have tests that they offer at there facilities that, for them, are equivelent to the SAT and ACT scores.. not every school offers this, and almost all require or heavily recommend you taking the SAT/ACT

The SATS is a test that has proven to be a good predictor of how well an individual will succed in college. While it dose not carry the tremendous weight with admissions offices that it once did it remains a crucial factor. If you are in high school now they will also consider class rank and extra curricular activities. If you are an adult life experience may count as well as an essay.

Well it wasn't hard for me though the college is supposedly really selective. Just make sure your sat or act scores along with your gpa if you still in high school looks good before you apply.  I'm a freshman and I disagree with what the person above me posted. The school is far from boring. Maybe his cousin attends one of the remote colleges of SCAD. I'm at the main campus and I've never heard anyone say anything negative about the school. You should really look into SCAD. I recommend taking a tour.

I took an SAT Prep class in high school and we took many SAT tests that had been given in the couple of years prior to my class.  And my scores always went up.  I never did take an actual SAT though, but the tests we took in that class were real SATs.\n\nJ

Why that particular college?  Is it a reason your parents would agree with?  If so, perhaps they will pay for you to have a tutor.  If not, perhaps the best thing would be to choose a less demanding college.  \n\nMany people around here go to a two-year community college (which is a good one, but admits most anyone), taking only courses that can be transferred, and then start the four-year school (UCSC) as a transferring junior.  Seems to work out really well.

Maybe not.  Since the whole SAT "scandal" more and more schools are dropping the requirement.  Check with each school you're interested in.

What the other person said is true, but I wanted to clarify a couple of points. \n\nYou can get into a community college without SAT or ACT. You'll do two years there, graduate with your Associates Degree in Nursing, and you'll be an RN if you attended the right sort of program. Then you can get a job if you'd like or transfer to a four year program to complete your BS in Nursing. When you transfer, the new university will only look at your record from community college. They won't look at your SAT or ACT scores at all. \n\nIf you'd like, you can even start working and get your BS in Nursing at night. A lot of nurses do this.

It depends on the school you are applying to. Most seem to draw the line at 3 or 4 years.\n\nAs of 1998, Rutgers University would not accept SAT or Achievement scores that were older than 4 years.

I was looking for an online school about a year ago and I really did a lot of research.  There are a number of "sketchy" schools that you should avoid.  The only one that I was really interested in was Kaplan University.  Kaplan is the company that is in charge of SAT testing and test prep.  It is a very reputable company.  If I do end up taking online classes I will take classes from Kaplan.

The SAT (pronounced "S-A-T") Reasoning Test, formerly called the Scholastic Aptitude Test and Scholastic Assessment Test, is a type of standardized test frequently used by colleges and universities in the United States to aid in the selection of incoming students. In the U.S., the SAT is administered by the private College Board, and is developed, published, and scored by the Educational Testing Service (ETS). Many universities in other countries such as the United Kingdom have recently begun to use the test as a scholastic benchmark as well, if perhaps not with as much weight.

I never took either one. Have you transferred your credits from your Jr. college? This is what I did and I didn't need the tests. I have heard the SAT is easier. Most colleges should be able to set you up with the schedule, or I am sure there is something on line. Check the web site. There should be testing dates and locations there.\nBest wishes going back to school. I have started this too, but I am a few years older than you. But It Is better to do it while you are younger!

Two year colleges don't require SAT or ACT testing?  I'd need to check that one myself.\n\nSue

Most universities use the SAT. The ACT on the otherhand is sometimes very useful. I took both when I went through the application process even though I only needed the SAT for the schools I was applying for. As it turned out, The SAT got me in and the ACT let me CLEP out of classes.

Most people typically take the SAT in their junior year of high school.  I wouldn't take it before then, but there are some great SAT practice books on the market that I would suggest.  The best ones are done by the College Board, since they actually create the test.  You can get study guides, books with real SATs from past years, and lots of other good finds.  Check out www.amazon.com or your local bookstore.
