Will USC accept December SAT scores for merit scholarship deadline?

<p>I just took the November SAT today and I don't think I'm going to get a score that satisfies me. USC's application deadlines are December 1 for scholarship consideration and January 10 for regular. So, if I take the SAT in December and send the scores as fast as I can, after I send the application except the official SAT score report before December 1, will they accept it and consider me for the scholarship? I heard that USC did accept December SAT scores in the past, but I'm just not sure if they will accept it this year...</p>

<p>Yes, if you choose USC as an automatic score recipiant, the December sittings of both the SAT and ACT are acceptable for the December 1st scholarship consideration deadline. Do NOT wait to “see” your scores before deciding if you will send them, or they will not arrive on time.</p>

<p>USC also requests that you FAX an unofficial copy of your scores as soon as you are able to access them online in addition to sending the official reports. Write your USC ID# on the printout and FAX it in.</p>

<p>Some deadline info from last year - it ALL applies to *this *year as well:
