Colleges that accept a 1100 SAT

Updated Federal and Common Data Set numbers, each with its year

The short answer

A 1100 SAT is in the middle 50% of first-year scores at 478 four-year colleges. The 100 below are the ones where 1100 sits closest to the middle of the range, including Brigham Young University-Idaho, Kennesaw State University and Texas State University.

Each college reports the SAT scores of the first-year students who sent one: a quarter scored below the 25th percentile and a quarter above the 75th. When 1100 falls between the two, it's a typical score there. Many of these colleges are test-optional, so the range describes only the students who chose to send a score.

What colleges accept a 1100 SAT score?

A 1100 SAT is in the middle 50% of first-year scores at 478 four-year colleges. The 100 below are the ones where 1100 sits closest to the middle of the range, including Brigham Young University-Idaho, Kennesaw State University and Texas State University. Colleges don't set a minimum score, so a 1100 inside a college's middle 50% means it is a typical score among the first-years who sent one.

Which of these colleges admit the most applicants?

St. Mary's University admitted 98% of fall 2024 applicants, University of Colorado Colorado Springs admitted 97% of fall 2024 applicants and University of Mississippi admitted 97% of fall 2025 applicants. Among the 100 colleges listed, 65 admitted three in four applicants or more.

Which colleges on this list are hardest to get into?

Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University admitted 21% of fall 2024 applicants, Citadel Military College of South Carolina admitted 28% of fall 2025 applicants and Regent University admitted 38% of fall 2024 applicants: the lowest rates on this list.

Do I have to send my SAT score to these colleges?

It depends on the college. We read the fall 2027 rule on the college's own site for 3 colleges on this list: 2 require a score, 1 are test-optional. For the others, check the college's admissions page before you decide.

Numbers change each year when colleges and the Department of Education publish new data. Confirm costs and admission rules with the college before you apply.
