How to send SAT/ACT scores to Colleges

Please remember that Stuyvesant HS cannot send ACT or SAT scores to colleges. Students must arrange to have test scores sent directly to the colleges to which they're applying from the appropriate testing agency. 

Students can do so by using their online accounts at either www.actstudent.org or www.collegeboard.org and following the related prompts within. 

Please note that many colleges now accept self-reported scores and may not require official school reports until you eventually enroll in the spring.  Check your college websites to see if you can rely on self -reporting for any of the colleges to which you’ll apply.

Please note however that several universities very popular with Stuy students including Boston University, Georgetown U., SUNY Stony Brook, and SUNY Buffalo U. still DO NOT ACCEPT SELF-REPORTED SCORES.  If you are applying to any of these colleges you must have an official score report sent to each.

Remember also that many colleges are now test-optional; that means you can apply without scores.  However, remember that test -optional colleges will still consider scores if submitted; if you tested and your scores are within or above that college's mid-50% range for admitted students, you should still submit your scores.
