Sent Rushed Scores

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Michigan

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I requested college board to rush my scores to university of Michigan on October 27. They were sent on October 28. I just found out that they don't like rushed scores. What am I supposed to do??? Should I re-send my scores in regular and will they reach in time???????</p>

<p>Not in time for EA. Send them regular anyways.</p>

3

<p>??? It says they have to be POSTMARKED by Nov. 1st. If I send them on October 31, shouldn’t they reach in time? This makes no sense.</p>

<p>Bump 10 char</p>

<p>I’m not so sure anymore, it’s been a while since I applied as a freshman. I think you should probably call the admissions office to make sure, they’ll definitely give you good information there.</p>

<p>Yea, I tried calling them twice today. Both times they said their operators were busy. Anybody else have ideas?</p>

7

<p>??? 10 char</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure test scores need to be there by Nov. 1 (and it takes an extra week to process them with your app). It’s on UMich’s website
I requested to send mine electronically on 10/26 and they still haven’t been sent so I’m going to miss the EA deadline</p>

<p>I asked this too a few days ago; my scores were sent on the 28th (regular delivery) but I’m sure they won’t get to the school until after the november first deadline. Judging by the answers I got and the information on UMich’s website, the person above me (“I’m pretty sure test scores need to be there by Nov. 1”) is wrong. From the site:</p>

<p>"Applying for early action typically involves the same steps and materials as regular admissions. A complete application includes the following forms and information and must be POSTMARKED by November 1:</p>

<p>SAT or ACT with writing test scores (must be sent directly from the testing agency—rush paper scores not accepted)
(Along with other application materials)</p>

<p>Deadlines and Decisions</p>

<p>Complete application and materials—November 1 (POSTMARKED)"</p>

<p>The site says Postmarked, not received, for a reason - they want the scores to be sent by or before the deadline, but it doesn’t say they have to be received by then. If you sent them regular delivery and they delivered before 11/1, you should be fine.</p>

<p>As for rushed scores, I’m not sure how that works.</p>
