just joined CC... I am class of 2012 from Nepal. Anybody pls tell me whether u need to get your scores before you send your Application Forms or not. Can we send our SAT scores after we send our application package, of course within the deadline?

You can send in your application before you get your SAT scores..just mention the date you will be taking your SAT or if have already taken it but haven't received the score report..you can always send it after the deadline...coz the only thing that is actually due in the deadline are your application and the recommendation letters....

Vassar is a definitely a good liberal arts college which usually gives a lot of financial aid to international students but for some reason I can't help thinking that it isn't the strongest for sciences....for usually it is known for subjects like theaters and drama and those kind of stuff...but..again..it's my personal opinion...

PS: I too applied to Vassar in ED...got deferred then rejected

Thanks shail691
But my SAT subject test scores will be available only by first week of December and the college where I'm thinking of applying early requires SAT subject tests. Won't that be too late since they respond to the ED application by mid december. Should I be looking for some other college, which do not require SAT subject tests, for ED ?
