<p>Hey guys,
I am applying to colleges this year and I was wondering about the application process. I took the SAT II Subject Tests, the ACT, and the AP Exams last spring. Although I chose schools for those to be sent to, I have recently been looking at other schools that I would rather go to now. Since I did not have this school in mind when I was selecting schools to send the scores to, I had to recently pay to submit the three different test scores to the college. Right now, I am about ready to submit my application, should I wait to submit my application until after the test scores arrive at the school or should I go ahead and apply right now without the test scores received yet. Thanks in advance for the help.

TL;DR I recently paid to have test scores sent to a college, should I wait to send my application until after the test scores have been received by the school or does it not matter if I send my application in now while the test scores are still in the process of being sent?</p>
<p>I am pretty confident you can submit your application first. The school will not read it until it receives your test scores, but yeah I think you can submit your application first.</p>
<p>The school I am looking at does not require AP or SATII tests be submitted. However, I would like them to see it when they get my application. I’m not sure if I should wait for those scores to be sent before I apply.</p>
<p>I think if you report those scores on your common app, then you should be okay. And you could call admissions to tell them you want those as part of your application.</p>
<p>However, you seem like you want to wait until the colleges get the scores. Pretty sure you can do that too. Whatever you are more comfortable with.</p>
<p>As noted above, report the scores on your application. Once you’ve done that, it shouldn’t matter which arrives first.</p>
