<p>I am taking the ACT on September 8th, but if I do not get the results I want, the next date is October 27th. This is only 5 days before the ED deadline, so the results would not come in on time. Would I be able to update/send in my score once I get it? Or would I only do this if I got deferred to update my app along with a midyear report?</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure that’s fine. I’m planning on retaking if then too to see what happens, and I’m also applying ED. I’m on my phone do I can’t post a link but try googling “rice admissions deadlines” and it has a good chart to look at for reference.</p>
<p>Testing must be completed by the deadline; the scores can come in later. You can send in the new scores when they are available.</p>
<p>Easiest solution is just to make sure you are prepared and do well on Sept 8 :-)</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
