good going class of 2012

skunk, US schools accept attested photocopies of SAT scores. no problem. but i'm not sure if every school does that. just have your GC write u a fee waiver and photocopy that as well. as far as I know, all nepalese kids do that. don't waste your money on the extra scores reports. don't waste your money on anything (too many printing and photocopying that we normally do)during the entire process unless it's necessary to do so. good luck with the SATs

ToUSin2007: Are you sure?..Coz what I have seen (almost everywhere) that they want ''official'' score report and attested photocopies are not ''Official''...

ToSin2007: Thanks for the advice. I'll do that. As for the excessive printing and photocopying, that is almost inevitable. I'll try not to do that but we generally dont know what is absolutely neccessary until we've gone through the entire application process.

I just confirmed from Barium..There are very-very few (unknown to me) universities in US who accept Attested/Certified ''PHOTOCOPY'' of SAT scores..So, you will be required to spend those extra bucks for the reports...

I am sorry but I disagree with Issac on this. I applied to 25 odd schools in total and I sent the photocopied/attested reports to each of those colleges and they all accepted them (Yes they did!!!!!!1). But hey there are around 3500 colleges in the US. So technically, 25 colleges out of 3500 can indeed be considered "a very very few".... so yeah....Issac might be right as well if u do actually look into the bigger picture
