During a zoom meeting with a regional admissions officer for TAMU back in May, we were told that when applications open up Aug 1, go ahead complete the application, then once the student is able to test (end of august, september, october) to send the test scores at that time. As long as the test scores were received by Dec 15, it will be okay.
UT Austin and TAMU have both announced they are going test optional for this application cycle. My son’s school day SAT was cancelled also (March 25th) and he hasn’t been able to take SAT or ACT yet. He’s supposed to take the ACT July 18 and SAT Aug 29th. We’re not going to directly send scores for either. We’ll wait and see how he does and then decide if he’s going to apply test optional to those two, His application is pretty strong except for testing…he has test anxiety and doesn’t test well, but his gpa, class rank and EC’s are strong.
