Finding non-competitive colleges is a solid strategy, especially if you're feeling overwhelmed by the admissions process. Here's a list of 10 least selective colleges that have a high acceptance rate and that you might consider. Please note that each of these institutions may offer unique opportunities, so it's important to research each one to ensure it's a good fit:

1. Open Door Colleges: These institutions, such as community colleges, vocational schools, and certain online universities, accept all or nearly all high school graduates.

2. Western International University: This Arizona-based school has a generous acceptance policy, accepting nearly all applicants.

3. Baker College: Located in Michigan, this private, non-profit college also has an acceptance rate of 100%.

5. University of Pikeville: This private, liberal arts university in Kentucky has an acceptance rate upwards of 90%.

6. Cuny Medgar Evers College: Part of the City University of New York system, this college is located in Brooklyn and has a high acceptance rate.

7. Montana State University Billings: As a public university, it has an acceptance rate of over 90%.

9. Indiana Wesleyan University: This evangelical Christian liberal arts university admits most of its applicants.

10. Granite State College: Part of the University System of New Hampshire, this institution offers undergraduate and postgraduate studies and has a high acceptance rate.
