When will UIUC receive my ACT Score?

<p>I sent the scores through the ACT website and submitted everything on October 28th, but the application summary shows that they haven't received my score yet. Since it's sent electronically, shouldn't they receive it immediately? Will I not meet the November 1st deadline?</p>

<p>I had the same thought (and worry) last year when my son was applying at the last minute for early action (to College of Engineering). When I called ACT, they told me that it can take 1-2 weeks for the results to be sent…HOWEVER, after several calls to the center, I was able to reach someone who said that they batch all of the scores to a particular school and send them together. Why they didn’t tell me that the first time I called, I do not know. No worries. Your scores will get there in time (plus UIUC gives a few days beyond the deadline to receive the scores—although they won’t willingly tell you this either because it just encourages last minute score transfers). You should be fine. If you log into the ACT/SAT sites, you have the date that YOU requested the transfer. If listed as before November 1st, you are all set.</p>

<p>Momgrad, thanks that really makes me feel a bit better. I took the Oct. SAT and the scores were automatically sent to UIUC on the 24th, however it’s not showing up on my SRAR as of today (30th at 10pm CST). I should be good right?</p>

<p>To 161803–my only experience is using the ACT and SAT websites to request score transfer. I looked up the records to double check the date. My son had requested score transfer on October 28, 2011. The scores arrived on time because he was admitted (early action) for the Fall 2012. I know that many universities warn you that the scores from October tests might not be available by the November admission dates, however, if SAT notified you that they sent the scores on the 24th, than I can not see any reason why they wouldn’t arrive on time.</p>

<p>You will be fine. The issue you are facing is that it often takes a week and sometimes longer after UIUC receives your score to reflect such receipt in your on-line application account.</p>

<p>It arrived! If anyone is reading this in the future, in addition to the posts above, my ACT scores arrived on Oct 31 (around noon) after sending them Oct 28 (around midnight).</p>

<p>But even if they don’t arrive by then for you, then listen to momgrad76 and don’t worry.</p>

<p>I sent my ACT scores to UIUC on the 25th and they have not received them. However, they also changed my application type from Priority Filing to Regular Admission. Does anyone else have this problem?</p>
