Acceptance Rate100%

National Polytechnic reports both a 100% acceptance rate and 100% freshman retention, so admission is not the main hurdle to plan around. Since it is test-optional and no score-based merit thresholds are listed, ask whether an SAT or ACT score can support placement conversations while you focus on program fit and total cost.
