Can I just send Cornell my ACT scores?

I’m applying to Cornell Arts & Sciences. I know the school does not participate in score choice, but I took both the SAT and the ACT. I did better on the ACT than I did on the SAT. However, does a no score choice policy mean that I have to send the results from all of my standardized tests? Or does it simply mean that I can choose between the SAT and ACT, but either way I have to send all scores from that test? Because I would really prefer to send in only my ACT score (and the required Subject scores).

Thank you in advance for your help! :slight_smile:

You can choose. There have been several threads on this topic. Too bad the Cornell instructions aren’t clearer.

@Renomamma Thanks for the clarification. :slight_smile:

Sure…and if you don’t trust me (I’m not sure I would trust a total stranger on something this important), you could always call admissions and ask.

@Renomamma I trust what you’re saying, but I probably will double check. I have a friend who got accepted in to Cornell’s class of 2019, so I might ask him, too.

You CAN send your ACT scores and SAT II subject scores. There is no need to send SAT scores.
