Northwest College SAT Scores, ACT Scores, Acceptance Rate, and Admissions Requirements
Northwest College is test-optional, so your first decision is whether a score adds evidence beyond your grades and coursework. With tuition already relatively low, submit scores only if they strengthen your academic profile, and keep scholarship planning separate unless an award lists a specific SAT or ACT requirement.

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Northwest College, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year so summer and fall of senior year are available for retakes. Since Northwest College does not offer ED or EA and the March 1 aid priority deadline is not tied to test scores, use the Regular Decision timeline to choose the latest fall retake that will arrive in time.
