Should I rush my SAT scores?

<p>I'm applying to Yale and Brown, and they have a postmark deadline of March 1st for their applications. Collegeboard says that my scores will sent any time between 3 and 5 weeks if I choose the regular option. Should I rush my scores? I don't want to pay $26 for each report (it's $9.50 normally).</p>

<p>Check with those schools; most places I've looked at tell applicants not to rush scores because they sometimes have problems receiving them.</p>

<p>most schools advise students not to rush scores because they access them online. i would check with the admission offices before paying an extra 60 bucks.</p>

<p>Good news- to rush reports it's $9.50 for each report plus $26. <em>Not $26 per report.</em></p>

<p>So sending 3 reports would be 9.50+9.50+9.50+26
not 26+26+26.</p>

<p>If you send 5+ reports, the difference in cost between rushing and not rushing isn't that much.</p>

<p>I called Yale about this same subject about a month ago, and they said that they had no problem at all with rushing the scores. Just one thing...if you order your scores over the phone like I had to for archived scores, be sure to get the person to repeat back to you what they've got down...The first time through, I got charged the same amount for sending out scores to 4 schools, but they only sent them to three. Guess which one didn't get sent? You guessed it. Yale.</p>

<p>I took the SAT in 2002, we didn't have an internet connection at my house at the time, (hooray for living in the Northeast Kingdom!) so I never made an account on collegeboard. Since my scores are now in archives there's no record of them on their normal database, hence placing the order over the phone. </p>
