Will my December SAT scores get sent to the college before Dec 31st???

<p>So I registered for December SAT yesterday.
I heard that if u pick designate college recipients before you take the December SAT, the December scores will get sent to that college recipients 2-3 days before the scores come out online.
I really need to send my December scores to UF, but the deadline is December 31st and the score comes out on like December 21st....
What should I do??
Are there any ways I can designate UF to send the December scores before I actually take the test?
Please help!</p>

<p>They should be sent to the college just before then if the SATs are at the beginning of the month.
You should be fine!
If you’re really worried you can call their undergrad admissions office.</p>

<p>you will be fine, check with the college to make sure though</p>

<p>In your test application on-line you can designate up to four colleges to receive your score upon release for no extra charge. If you list UF as one of those you will be fine as long as there is not an investigative hold put on your test score such as can occur for suspected cheating.</p>

<p>Thank you guys!
So do I just designate UF as recipients for my December scores after the scores come out online??
Or do I have to designate UF as recipients for my December scores RIGHT NOW(or before I take the December SAT)??</p>

<p>Oh and when I called the UF admission office, the officers told me that they dont guarantee that they will receive my Dec SAT scores because the scores come out on like December 21st and it takes a long process for the scores to get sent to the college…
So Im still kinda worried…</p>

<p>The scores will be sent to the colleges you listed as the recipients for the four free reports immediately as the scores come out. It takes 2-3 days for the colleges to receive and update your scores on the application page. My scores reached the colleges about 2 days after October 25th for my October 6th SAT. Still, contact the admissions office to be sure!</p>

<p>The latter. If you want to assure scores will get there by Dec 31 designate UF as a college to receive scores now by doing so in your test application file. In other words, you should not wait to learn your score before sending. The difference in delivery time is this: if you designate UF in your test application, then your score will be set up for sending before scores come out and score will actually be electronically delivered to UF, by College Board’s placing it in an on-line account that UF has with CB for the providing of scores, about two days before you even get the score on-line. If you wait until score comes out, you will be among a group of test-takers, possibly numbering in the tens of thousands, who all order their scores sent as soon as they are released or within a day or two afterwards. Despite anyone’s beliefs about the speed of electronic delivery, the fact is that those orders have to be processed and checked by human beings to carry them out. There are only a limited number of human beings at CB to do that, most of whom will likely not be working Saturday Dec 22 through Tuesday, December 25, or Dec 29 through Jan 1 with the resulting risk that your order to send might not get processed until after Jan 1.</p>

<p>Hey!! Did uf get your december score?? I’m in the exactly same situation! I want to know whether my december score has a chance or not :frowning: can you please tell me? </p>
