<p>I am planning on applying to Early Action for Notre Dame and BC. Both of their early action deadlines are November 1. Do schools need to receive the scores by then or just have them postmarked? How long does it take for collegeboard to send them out? Is there expediated delivery and, if so, how quick is it? I took my SAT junior year, and I did not write down any colleges to send the scores to.</p>
<p>Tests can arrive after Nov 1. SAT says it takes up to four weeks. Reality is much less as they are electronically sent. To be safe and get file completed for review quickly you should send by second week of October. You can send them now even before you apply -- they open application file on you as soon as the receive any application materials such as a test score.</p>
