<p>most kids from VA take SAT's, but im pretty sure all 3 of those schools accept ACT's</p>

<p>Yep. ACT is usually accepted, but the SAT is normal for that part of the country.</p>

<p>The ACT is accepted at these schools, but very rare.</p>

<p>ACT is accepted at all schools now: <a href="http://www.usatoday.com/news/education/2007-03-18-life-cover-acts_N.htm%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.usatoday.com/news/education/2007-03-18-life-cover-acts_N.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>My VA-based daughter took the ACT solely, and JMU was one of her aps. All three schools take both ACT or SAT, your choice.</p>
