<p>Do colleges accept scores if you send them after the application deadline?</p>
<p>or if they don’t receive the scores by the deadline?</p>
<p>This is different for every college.</p>
<p>Look on their website, under undergraduate admissions there should be a section that deals with SAT/ACT testing and their specific policy. If there’s nothing on the website then you need to call admissions and ask.</p>
<p>Many colleges accept the January sitting for the SAT yet have Jan 1 app deadlines. They clearly aren’t limiting the time for scores to be reported to Jan 1st. You’ll be fine.</p>
