Not your question, but have you actually started at this college? b/c it’s June, and you “just found out”. I’m also surprised that it’s a surprise- b/c most of the schools that I know that don’t use cards put that up front as one of their best things.
Regardless, it will matter the school, but there are quite a few colleges that use evaluations with strong grad school acceptances (thinking of Reed, NCF, Sarah Lawrence, Antioch in particular, but there are others) (and there’s Brown, which is sort of an odd hybrid).
