Co-Lin’s 100% acceptance rate changes the question: admission is open, so your strategy should focus on cost, fit, and starting college ready. Since Co-Lin is test-optional, prep for the SAT or ACT only if a strong score serves a specific goal like placement, program requirements, or your own readiness.

Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit SAT or ACT scores to test-optional Co-Lin, plan for a first test by the spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and fall of senior year for superscore-focused retakes. Co-Lin does not list an Early Decision or Early Action deadline, so do not use the April 1 financial aid priority deadline to set your testing plan unless a specific scholarship or program requires scores.
