How does taking the November SAT and applying early work?

<p>I'm applying early action to the University of Chicago. I have other SAT scores, but I want to take it again in November. The deadline for U of C is November 1st, but the website says, "for the Early Action deadline, we will accept November SAT." The November SAT scores come out on November 22nd, and I could rush the scores and get them to U of C in 2 days. This would get the scores to them at earliest on November 24nd. Is this soon enough? Is there a faster way to send scores? When do they make their final decision? Will they consider scores they receive on the 24th?</p>

<p>Please Help</p>

<p>I don’t know how it works at U Chicago, but I know that at Johns Hopkins they will consider a November score IF it arrives before they get to your file. They state that it usually does, but they can’t guarantee that they won’t review your file before they receive your score. If they do, they will have made their decision already and won’t change it.</p>

<p>Maybe it’s the same way at U Chicago.</p>

<p>UChicago has mentioned that what it wants you to do is designate it on your application for the test as a college to automatically receive scores (e.g., as one of your free sends) if you want to assure it will arrive on time to be considered. That is, in fact, the fastest way to send a score since it actually gets sent before it is released to you on-line.</p>
