For financial reasons I sent my SAT scores late.
Every college I applied to did receive an SAT score, but they received a prior SAT score from March that is lower than what I had reported on my application (November.) Is there anything I can do? Did I just ruin my application?
Some risk that if it is a college that issues RA decisions in early Feb, it might be too late because final decisions may already be made. For colleges that issue decisions in March or April, you are likely fine since a final decision is not likely to be made on you before the scores are received. Since your application was complete and timely with the prior score, those colleges generally accept receipt of additional scores after the application deadline as an update to your already timely application. In any event, you might want to contact your particular colleges to make sure.
