Ivy Tech was founded in 1963 as Indiana Vocational Technical College, to provide technical and vocational education for various industries and was rechartered as a system of vocational technical schools in 2005.

Ivy Tech's name was officially changed to Ivy Tech State College in 1995. In 1999, Ivy Tech entered into a partnership with Vincennes University to form the Community College of Indiana. The partnership ended and Ivy Tech was rechartered in 2005 to be known as a system of community colleges named Ivy Tech Community College of Indiana.

Best Answer

When I had applied to Ivy Tech (Indiana) SAT's weren't required for when I was in high school, But, I did have to take an entrance exam to be placed in the courses that would help me get in the right courses for me. The best thing I could tell you is call the business at the local school and ask them.
