SAT Scores past admission deadline

<p>I was under the impression that SAT/ACT scores could only be sent after the submission of the Common App. I placed an order with CB and ACT on 12/26 and I called CB. CB says that my scores are "scheduled" to be sent on 12/30. All of my schools accept the scores electronically. Will the scores reach the colleges with a deadline of 1/1 on time? Will my application be tossed if they are not on the desk of the college on 1/1? The colleges that I'm applying to with 1/1 deadlines are Stanford and CMU, Cornell a little later on 1/3. All other colleges have deadlines of 1/15 and later. Also, I emailed the three previous colleges informing that my scores may arrive late.</p>

<p>You’ll be fine. You ordered the scores to be sent before Jan 1st - that’s good enough. Relax.</p>

<p>I am extremely worried about this too. I would not want to not get into a college because of an SAT score report mix up. :(</p>
