<p>Is it alright to send transcripts and SAT scores to colleges before you submit the Common Application forms? If all the college receives are the transcript and SAT score, will they keep them on hold until they receive the rest of the application?</p>
<p>Yes, you can send anything that is needed for application file first, app, SAT score, or transcript, and college will begin a file on you that will then be matched with future submissions of the other parts of the needed materials. Moreover, if your intent is to complete your application near a January 1 deadline, you not only can but should send the supporting materials first and wise to order them NOW including because, for a transcript, you may find it difficult to get your mostly closed high school to send one during the week of December 25.</p>
