<p>On most college websites they give you the last month that you can take the SAT/ACT. What's the real, specific deadline for these tests? For example, on the Yale website, it says the last possible SAT month for SCEA is November. When should I send my SAT scores that I take in November? Should I put Yale as one of the colleges I want my scores to be sent to when I take the test? Or can I just send my scores after I've seen what I got? Will it get there in time?</p>
<p>If November scores for early action or early decision, you should designate the college as one to receive scores in your test application. A number state you should do that, others simply state they will consider Nov scores if they arrive on time. Designating the college in your test application is the only delivery method that assures they will arrive on time. It is in fact the fastest form of delivery – your scores are actually electronically delivered to the colleges two days before they are even released to you on line.</p>
<p>If regular admission and the college accepts January scores, you should do the same.</p>
<p>So when is the last date I should SEND the scores I ALREADY have if the site says the last test month is november?</p>
<p>If you list the college(s) for the November test, all your previous scores will automatically go along with the November test scores. Easy-peasy. It sounds like your are over-thinking this.</p>
<p>I am a bit paranoid haha. I’m only asking because I would like to see my November scores before I send them. So I’m just wondering if they would get there in time if I didn’t list the college during the test.</p>
<p>I think you can wait until you have a look at them to see if they are good enough to send. Whenever we send anything, transcripts through Docufide, ACT, SAT, etc. it appears on status of recipient college in a day or so. Stuff is sent electronically, practically immediately. Unless, we’ve just been lucky. Do other people have different experience with this?</p>
<p>I think my earlier post is not correct. We were sending scores this summer and even a month ago and they were sent immediately. But last week we sent one and 5 days later it still says ‘pending.’ So I called college board and they said it can take 1-2 weeks, even electronically. Before it wasn’t busy, but now it’s a busy time, so for any given university, they collect scores and send them every so often when they have a bunch.</p>
