Sending SAT Scores

So, I’m planning on applying to several CSU campuses for the fall 2020 term. The application will start on October 1. Should I order my official SAT score report right now to send to the colleges or should I wait until I submit the application?

You can order it now, it doesn’t matter. Eventually it will get linked with your application if you submit it before you apply. It takes at least a week for the College Board to process and send scores, perhaps more at peak times.

I remember there being one code for sending SAT scores to all CSUs, but I can’t seem to find it. Does anyone happen to have the four digit code? TIA!

@socalmomof4:

CSU systemwide institution code (3594) for SAT

Found the Cal State Apply website.

@Gumbymom Thank you!

The label for the whole CSU code is confusing because it says “Long Beach” due to the location of the CSU Chancellor’s Office.

It took at least ten days for my daughter’s results to be sent to the Cal State Apply site. We sent them in before she completed her Cal State applications. She has seen that acknowledgement on the dashboard of individual schools that she applied to since she has submitted the application.
