SAT Deadline for UCs

I submitted my SAT scores to the UCs in early December. However I took it a final time in December and improved. I sent the new score in a few days ago. Will be the new score be in on time to make the cut or will my other scores be the only ones considered? I also have the same question for the cal states.

If you indicated that you were sitting for the December SAT on your applications, the schools will hold your application until the new scores arrive. Some UC’s (not sure about Cal States) will go ahead and review your application based on your self-reported scores and then wait for the official scores to confirm.
