What colleges accept a 900 SAT score?

A 900 SAT is in the middle 50% of first-year scores at 118 four-year colleges. The 100 below are the ones where 900 sits closest to the middle of the range, including California State University-Fullerton, The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley and DeVry University-Illinois. Colleges don't set a minimum score, so a 900 inside a college's middle 50% means it is a typical score among the first-years who sent one.

The University of Texas at El Paso admitted 99.9% of fall 2024 applicants, Northeastern State University admitted 99.6% of fall 2024 applicants and Spalding University admitted 99.4% of fall 2024 applicants. Among the 100 colleges listed, 63 admitted three in four applicants or more.
