October ACT & Early Action

<p>Hi! I took the ACT in June and I got a 21, the average score. I just signed up to take it again on October 27th but I then realized I want to apply for early action and some of the school deadlines are for November 15th. Will I be able to send my scores after I send in the Common App and still be eligible for early action?</p>

<p>Thanks for all your help!</p>

<p>Depends on school, most accept Oct ACT for early action or decision (it can arrive after the app deadline) but some state (Ill, Mich are examples) that Oct ACT test is too late. Likely if the school has a Nov 15 app deadline it will be fine but you must check the particular college’s rules.</p>
