Acceptance Rate100%

With a 100% acceptance rate, your first question should be whether College Unbound fits your goals, schedule, and budget, not whether you can clear an admissions bar. Because it is test-optional, submit SAT or ACT scores only if they add clear strength to your academic record; otherwise, focus on GPA, credits, and readiness to persist.
