Alaska Southeast is fairly accessible at a 63% acceptance rate, but the 21% six-year graduation rate makes fit, support, and readiness worth taking seriously. Since testing is optional and few applicants submit scores, send an SAT or ACT only if it clearly backs up the strength of your grades and coursework.
