Springfield Technical Community College SAT Scores, ACT Scores, Acceptance Rate, and Admissions Requirements
With a 70% acceptance rate, your main strategy at STCC is making sure the program, cost, and placement path fit your goals, not chasing a perfect test profile. Since STCC is test-optional, use SAT or ACT prep only if a stronger score could help with course placement or give you more confidence in college-level work.

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional STCC, take your first SAT or ACT by spring of junior year so summer and fall of senior year are available for retakes and possible superscoring. Since STCC does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, use its Regular Decision deadline to choose the last fall retake whose scores will arrive in time, not the May 1 financial aid priority deadline.
