Standardized Test Guidelines
It is recommended that students attempt to take the SAT or ACT 2-3 times, beginning in the Spring of junior year.
Colleges will “superscore” each students’ scores, meaning, they will take the highest score from each section and combine them into one “superscore”.
All colleges will accept either the SAT or ACT. It is up to the students’ preference.
If a student receives federal free or reduced lunch, they are eligible for two SAT and two ACT fee waivers! See your school counselor for more information.
Students are required to submit their SAT/ACT scores to colleges directly from College Board/ACT. Students are responsible for doing this themselves!
Most colleges are now “test-optional,” meaning that they give students the option to not submit standardized test scores. Students are not held accountable if they wish not to submit their scores. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure that a school is test-optional.
