Do you have to take the SATs if you plan on going to a jr. college?

Question

I want to start at a jr. college and transfer to a university. do i need to take the sat's?

Answer 1

Most jr. colleges don't but since you want to transfer I'd recommend that you take the SATs anyway--it'll keep you from stressing out later on. You can transfer after just one year (I even know people who transferred after 1 semester); you just have to check your school since it varies.

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

If you know that you're going to Jr. College, what do you have to lose by taking the SAT? Who knows you may take it and open up other options. I tell my daughter to give herself as many options as possible. If you don't take the test you will never know what other options you may have had.

Answer 3

You should take them as many colleges do require them for transfer. You can apply to most colleges after just one year.

Answer 4

No.  You don't need your SATs.  Its like that old joke:  What does a prostitute and a community college have in common?  They'll both let anybody in.
