EC-Council University SAT Scores, ACT Scores, Acceptance Rate, and Admissions Requirements
The key data point is that ECCU is test-optional, so a score is not the gatekeeper for applying. If you have a strong SAT or ACT result, submit it as extra academic evidence; otherwise, focus your energy on coursework, experience, and goals that match ECCU’s career-focused programs.
