ACT score report to colleges put my GRADES on there?

<p>When registering for the ACT, I went along with what they asked and filled out the information about my grades and classes and stuff. I thought they were just using it for research information or something, but now I find out they're sending that to colleges along with a prediction of how well I'll do?!</p>

<p>Are they even allowed to do this without warning? It's kind of a privacy issue - if I don't want them to send my high school grades to colleges, what gives them the right to do so without telling me at the time that they will be sent to colleges? Obviously they'll see my grades with my transcript and I have nothing to hide with my grades since I'm proud of them, it's just the principle of them sending something to my colleges that I won't even get to see (how well they predict I'll do in college?).</p>

<p>They actually do say when you are filling out that page the purpose of it. I chose not to fill it out after reading it.</p>

<p>is there anyway we change that information? I sort of just randomly filled it out...</p>

<p>Yeah, same. I didn't take it very seriously and now I don't remember what I put. I'd at least like to see what they're sending my colleges.</p>

<p>If you want to see what they're sending to colleges, request a report for an "unlisted institution". To do so, you can go [here[/url</a>], and when you click "Look up code", go down to the bottom of the popup window and put in code 7000. They will send you a college report. Don't bother getting the priority report, it doesn't have anything on it but your scores (the full report arrives on the regular schedule). It also won't have the predictive stuff on it, because that's specific to each college and only goes to the college on the report, but your high school report--if you sent one to your high school and put the colleges down when you registered--has some of it.</p>

<p>You can call ACT ([url=<a href="http://www.actstudent.org/faq/contact.html%5Dnumbers"&gt;http://www.actstudent.org/faq/contact.html]numbers&lt;/a> here](<a href="https://www.actstudent.org/scores/send/asr_current.html%5Dhere%5B/url"&gt;https://www.actstudent.org/scores/send/asr_current.html)) and have them take your grades off your record, or correct them.</p>

<p>Thanks, Mrs. Ferguson.</p>
