<p>If I take the ACT and apply for an engineering program, will I still require the Subject Tests for certain colleges? Do any colleges give preference to SAT1+SAT2 over ACT?</p>
<p>Each school has its own requirements. Go to the admissions page of each school you are considering and see what their testing requirements are.</p>
<p>For example, the Fu School at Columbia says:
You may submit ACT scores in place of SAT and SAT Subject Test scores. The writing component offered by the ACTAssessment is mandatory for candidates for Columbia. Though not required, we welcome SAT Subject Test scores for students submitting the ACT should you chose to take them. If you have a specific area of academic interest, we recommend submitting them in that area of interest, if available.
