OK What's the Deal with SAT Score Sending?

<p>If it says </p>

<p>SAT Reasoning/ACT score report due by: 01-JAN</p>

<p>does that mean IN THEIR HANDS by January 1st? or Last test date before January?</p>

<p>Because, I sent some of my scores in this week using regular delivery and it won't get to the designated colleges for a one to three weeks, which is obviously past January 1st. Is this grounds for rescinding my application?</p>

<p>Argh, sorry! I never thought about this until now.</p>

<p>You're fine. Probably. If you want to really be safe, give those colleges' admissions offices a few calls.</p>
