Can someone go to community college with just the SAT?

No real "passing" the SAT. Still, if you were to perform well on the SAT getting your GED would be a snap. I'm not quite sure why you wouldn't just do that at that point.

In the world of the rational, I would say absolutely you could go to college with an average to above average SAT score only. Unfortunately the world of college acceptance is highly irrational, so I'd put the chances at about 20%.

You should look into how home-schooled children do it, because a number of them go.
 
Many community colleges do not require the SAT, although they will use the SAT scores in determining placement for incoming students. To matriculate, however, you will need to have either your high school or GED diploma. There is a program called Ability To Benefit (ATB) which does allow students who do not have a diploma to enroll in college as a matriculated student. The classes you take would not only count for college credit, but would also be applied to your GED. Enrollment in the ATB program is contingent on achieving a certain score on the college's ATB test. Also, in order to be eligible to receive federal assistance, a student must have a diploma or have been accepted into the ATB program.

If you have no high school diploma or GED diploma. Can you just take the SAT and apply for a 2yr. college? Would there be any chances of you getting in? (Of course one would have to pass the SAT).
