Advice about how SAT score reporting works

<p>College Board sends all scores to a college that exist at the time the request to send is made; tests taken after that time are not sent to that college unless another request to do so is made. Thus, that fall test will be sent to only those new colleges but those new colleges will also get all prior scores. </p>

<p>If your hope is to prevent those original colleges from seeing your fall score if its bad, you have another issue to deal with that requires checking with your high school -- many high schools stick all your test scores on the official high school transcript that is sent to colleges, so not ordering it to be sent by College Board does not necessarily mean the college will not learn of the fall score.</p>
