Taking the rest of the regents senior year to get the advanced diploma

Okay, My senior year is going to start in 2 days. I was good with the local regents diploma and finished everything junior year, took all the required regents to graduate then I thought why not taking the advanced regents diploma and take the rest of the regents. Now I have geometry, trig and (earth science, chemistry or physics) left to take only 3 regents and I think I need to get an 80 on algebra. Can I take all those regents in January 2016 of my senior year? I’m worried about applying to colleges in December or something and I’m not done with regents. What if I send my transcript and papers to college in December but my January regents scores won’t post. Is it okay? I’m so nervous and confused
