<p>I've taken the SAT twice, once in March and once in June. I am yet to send out any scores for those two times. I am taking the SAT once more on October 1 for I hope to get better scores. If I were to go onto collegeboard and select the schools to send my scores BEFORE taking the October 1st SAT, will those new October scores also be sent out once they are available? And if so, will they make it before Nov. 1, the deadline for many of my EA schools? Thanks</p>
<p>If you elect for Collegeboard to automatically send scores once they are available, yes, your EA schools will receive your October SATs on time.</p>
<p>If you go into your Oct test application now and designate colleges to receive scores, your free sends, then nothing will be sent until Oct score is released and at that time your Oct score and any prior scores will be sent to those colleges. You do have the option of not sending prior scores by unchecking them when you designate the colleges but you won’t be able to uncheck the Oct score because the designation you are making applies to that test. The colleges designated will actually be sent your Oct scores (and any prior scores you left checked) two business days before the score is released to you on-line in October. The schools’ with Nov 1 app deadlines , either EA or ED, will probably have the scores before Nov 1 but it does not matter since they all accept Oct scores for EA or ED even if they arrive after Nov 1.</p>
<p>If you actually want to send any of your prior scores before the Oct scores come out, you have to go on-line into a prior test application and order a send to each college for $10.50 per college because you cannot do it through your Oct test application file…</p>
<p>drusba@ Not meaning to hijack the thread, OP. Is it the same for sending previous ACT scores?</p>
<p>There is never any group sending of ACT scores. It always sends only the particular test ordered and to send multiple tests to a college you must do separate orders. Thus, if you designate colleges as free sends in test application, the only thing that will be sent is that particular test. To send prior tests to a college you have to separately order each test and pay a fee per test.</p>
