Timeline of SAT/ACT and AP Score Submissions to Colleges

Applying to College
1

When do we need to send official SAT/ACT scores to colleges? Is it before the application deadline or only after being accepted by a college?

The same for AP scores - do we send them with the application or only after being accepted?

Depends in the college. Many allow self reporting on the application. For those, you send the official report if accepted and attending.

For those colleges requiring score reports with the application, they need to be received by the application deadline

In almost all instances,you can self report on the application and send the official report if accepted and attending.
