PSA: score reporting

With all the frustration about late scores with both the SAT and ACT recently, I thought I should mention one other factor to consider when ordering score reports.  Both the SAT and ACT have a statement on their websites about the scores getting to schools based on the school's reporting cycle.

Most of the schools that ds was considering were already sent scores when he took the test so I didn't pay much attention to that detail.  He added one school to his list mid-October so I went to the ACT site and ordered scores.  Well, through email exchanges with this school, it turns out that they get a batch of scores from ACT every *4* weeks on a CD.  I called ACT and found out that this school would be sent the CD with my son's scores on Nov 4.  Thankfully the deadline for scholarships at this school is Nov 15.

I was not aware that there could be delays because of how the schools receive scores. 

 

Something to consider.

We were just lucky that the school dd applied to EA at the last minute gets their ACT report electronically, so they had it  within a day or so.  Other dd's EA school deadline is the 15th - I've already sent the score.
