Is December too late to take the ACT's senior year?

Hi- so i’m consdiering retaking my act’s in decmember. woudl that be too late for schools that i have applications due 1/1/2016?

Each school has different requirements. Some will even accept tests taken in January. December should be fine.

You should be OK. CAll the schools just to make sure. Some schools will even take the February ACT Test!

Almost all schools with early Jan app deadlines accept through the Dec ACT, and it can arrive after the app deadline, and many even accept through the Jan SAT. However, there are a small number that require all things including test scores to be in their hands by the app deadline, making the Dec ACT too late, and you should check colleges to which you are applying to assure it is not one of those (those that insist on everyting being in their hands by the app deadline tell you that on their sites).
