Which Colleges Require Both SAT and ACT scores
?id? A lot of my students take both the SAT and the ACT, and are wondering which colleges require both tests, all tests of one type, or some variation thereof. I have an updated list for you below.Please note: if your school is NOT on this list, like most of the colleges in America, then they do not require all scores--they are either "superscore" schools (your best score from each section), or "best sitting" schools (your best score from any one test date). These schools (like the vast majority of colleges) will allow you to select only the scores you want to sent them, and leave out the ones that you don't.Here is a full list (current as of 7/4/16) of the 21 schools (13 if you include the UC schools as 1 school) that require all SATs and ACTs, all tests of one type, or some variation thereof:-Cornell, Carnegie Mellon, and Harvey Mudd: either all SAT scores or all ACT scores (and all of both if you decide to send both), plus all Subject Test scores. -Duke: either all ACT scores or all S AT and Subject Tests scores; if you submit any SAT or any Subject Test scores, then you must submit both all SAT and all Subject Test scores.-Georgetown: all SAT, Subject Test, and ACT scores.-Stanford, Penn and Barnard: all SAT and all ACT scores, but whatever Subject Test scores you want to send.-Rice and Tufts: all SAT scores, if you send any SAT scores, but whatever ACTs or Subject Test scores you want to send.-Syracuse: all SAT scores if you send any SATs, but whatever ACTs you want to send (does not require or consider Subject Test scores).-UCs: all SAT scores if you send any SAT scores, whatever Subject Tests you want to send, and (rule currently open to interpretation) whatever ACT scores you want to send.-Yale: either all SAT scores or all ACT scores (if you decide to send both you must send all of both), but you can send whatever / whichever (thewhich vs. what issue is an open-ended question, and another issue entirely!) Subject Test scores you want to send.Happy College A pplication Season, and good luck. Keep in mind that these polices could always change before applications are due for the Class of 2020. Any questions, contact me and I'll be sure to reply.-Brian copyright 2016 Brian R.
