Did you submit both the ACT and SAT?

3

Yes

May I ask why you submitted both scores? I see they ask for either, but not both.

Also curious about why @wisteria100 asked.

My ACT score is technically better (it translates to a higher SAT score) but I wanted to submit both because I liked both of them. It wasn’t really something I thought about a lot.

It appears you applied to Colgate as a realistic reach. Based on your GPA and other aspects of what you have posted, you might get in. However, Colgate’s overall acceptance rate is low (25%), and, while noting you applied ED, this might serve as a reasonable figure with which to estimate your own chances.

I asked about which scores you sent, because the ACT is stronger and would present you in a better light.

I was accepted! Hope this thread helps others
