SAT and AP Scores for Transfer Students

I am a transfer student currently filling out my Common App. I have enough credits that I don’t need to report my SAT or AP scores, but I did very well on them so I figured I’d include them anyway. But while filling them out I became a little confused. It asks, “do you wish to self-report scores” and then gives me some boxes to fill out the scores, which I did. But do I have to send in the scores or do the schools have some way of checking this? How do they verify my SAT scores?

They may ask for official scores at either application time or matriculation time, or they may not care at all. Check the web sites of the colleges you are applying to.
