Transferring: Is my SAT score really that important?

Applying to College
1

<p>Hi CC! I'm planning on applying to several schools for transfer admission next fall (I'm currently a freshman). I'm wondering, though, if my SAT score will hurt me. I got a 1960 when I took the test in high school, but I also got a 30 on my ACT. Should I only send in my ACT score? Does either really matter when it comes to transfer admission? I ended up with a 4.0 for my first semester in college, and I'm hoping that my GPA will be enough to get me into the schools I am applying to.</p>

<p>Thank you for your help/advice in advance! I really know very little about the transfer process and any comments are appreciated.</p>

<p>Yes, the SAT is still very important after just one year in college at many schools, especially highly selective ones.</p>
