This is probably a stupid question but I can’t find a clear-cut answer anywhere for the life of me. I’m a rising senior and am planning on EDing to Penn, but I also want to retake my SAT before the deadline in November. I cannot do it in August as I am taking subject tests, so the only other date is October. I know that Penn says that they accept the October SAT for ED, but if I take it in October, will I have to send the score directly to Penn? or will I have time to see my result and decide if I want to send it/superscore? It should be noted that ive already taken the sat once and have a pretty good score by Penn standards, but I definitely would like to retake if at all possible. Thanks!
You can wait until scores for the Oct test are released to send. Scores can arrive after the Nov 1 application deadline. In fact, Penn will actually accept SAT scores from the November test for ED (but for that Nov test you need to designate Penn in your test application as a college to automatically receive scores when scores are released).
