<p>I'm SUPER confused about the whole score sending thing for both the SAT and ACT. Do I have to pay 9.50 (8.50 for the ACT) for EACH school that i send my scores to? there seems to be a limit on the number of colleges i can send scores to, as well. And when should I send my scores? I haven't paid for any of my applications yet since i'm applying online and have not finished my essays.</p>
<p>Our guidance counselors send the SAT and ACT score reports with our transcripts...</p>
<p>yeah ours do too but all of my colleges require scores to be sent directly from the testing agency, unfortunately.</p>
<p>NO, NO, NO. Do not get fooled into the idea that your guidance counselor can send your SAT/ACT scores. There are only a HANDFUL of schools that allow you to use institutionalized versions. </p>
<p>For pretty much any university, you will have to pay the additional fees for sending additional score reports (minus the ones included with your test.) That does mean $9.50 for the SAT and $8.50 for the ACT per college. </p>
<p>Send your scores ASAP. You don't want the scores to not get there in time.</p>
<p>I've only taken the SAT so I'm only familiar with the SAT. The SAT gives you four for free. If you took the SAT with a fee waiver, you get eight for free (four additional on top of the standard four). I applied to eight schools so I sent my first four for free and paid $38 to send it to the other four.</p>
<p>sigh, it's total bull that sending scores costs $9.50. i've spent so much money on collegeboard related shiz, it's so sad!</p>
<p>All of mine were sent to the universities I am applying to and they have all accepted those scores.</p>
<p>Well, it really does depend..... you just have to make sure that the university to which you're applying accepts those scores. </p>
<p>I personally am only applying to one college that accepts the ACT/SAT on my transcript.</p>
<p>i applied to 4 colleges and only 1/4 required my scores to be sent directly from the testing agency. this also happened to be the most prostigious school of the 4...</p>
<p>wdrmhbs- what schools did you apply to?</p>
<p>I've never heard of a single school that would accept that. All of my schools specifically state that it has to come from collegeboard/actorg.</p>
<p>When you sign up for the SAT, it lets you send scores to 4 school for free. Thank God I did that earlier this year because it covered my UCs. All I had to pay was $10 to send them again but this time to CSUMentor(all Cal States)</p>
<p>Does anyone know how long it takes for the ACT to send scores to the schools? Am I screwed if the scores didn't make it from the ACT by EA deadline? Think I just got bumped to RD.</p>
<p>I know Augustana in Illinois takes the score from the transcript.</p>
