Does not having a class rank put me at a disadvantage?
Answered

Hey! My program doesn't do class rank (we are a Satellite Vocational Technical High School Academy located at a host school). Would this negatively affect me when I apply to colleges?

This will not negatively affect you in any way. Most of the schools I applied to did not ask for a school rank.

No, it doesn't. You can simply mention that your school doesn't rank. Different schools across the country and world have different grading systems, so context matters. That's the whole point of standardized tests like SAT and ACT, which compare every student on a common basis.

Would this work even if the host school does rank?

If you do have a rank from the host school, you should submit it. If you don't, "my school doesn't rank" should work.
