Amanda: Which colleges have the highest acceptance rates?
"With grades like these you'll never get into college!"
Heard that one before?
Well, it's not entirely true.
While it's important to do the best you can in high school to get into the college of your choice, there's a few doors that are always open. The following is a list of colleges that accept everybody, according to U.S. News & World Report.
Other California schools with high acceptance rates, include Notre Dame de Namur University (96.6 percent) and California State University, Chico (90.39 percent).
Oregon State and Arizona State universities also admit a high number of their applicants, 92.4 percent and 92.42 percent respectively, according to U.S. News & World Report.
So, despite what you, or your parents, might think, there's a college for everybody — some, even, not too far from home.
