<p>Some do and some don't.</p>

3

<p>Does anyone happen to know if Northwestern University allows this?</p>

4

5

<p>Very few colleges allow this. I know of only 1 or 2 that do and none are top tier. Puget Sound does mix them. I would be very surprised if Northwestern did. I would think that they might look at a high subscore on another test if you were borderline and subconsciously consider it</p>

<p>Most of the college regional meetings I've been too had Adcoms say they do mix and match SAT but not ACT.</p>

<p>:)</p>

<p>If you're taking it tommorow, why does it matter if you know? It's not very feasible to substantially raise your scores in one day anyways... better to just relax and do your best.</p>

<p>Washington University in St. Louis does this.</p>

<p>And I'd consider them "top tier."</p>
