<p>If a college doesn't receive your SAT scores by their SAT score report deadline (even though you sent it before that date), are you penalized?
I, up tillnow, did not consider the fact that it takes 1-2weeks for the scores to reach the college online , and 4-6(?)weeks by mail. :S</p>
<p>MIT received my scores like 1-2 days after I sent it… it doesn’t take that long online.</p>
<p>What are you referring to as “score report date.” If what you mean is the application deadline, then generally you do not have an issue since that is not the actual score deadline date at almost all colleges, and they accept scores that arrive after it and generally just want them within first two weeks after app deadline.</p>
