ACT with writing again?

I have taken the ACT 4 times now and am about to register for my 5th and final attemt. On my last test I got the writing score I wanted, and do not want to take it again.

Many of the schools I’m applying to want writing. Do I have to take ACT with writing for the next test to be something I can submit? Or would taking it without writing be fine?

If the schools require ACT with writing, then yes you have to take the test with writing or they will not accept your latest score.
