I think there are different types of fee waivers (others please correct me).

1) fee waivers to apply to a college.

2) fee waivers to take the SAT

3) fee waivers to take the ACT

4) fee waivers to send CSS Profile to a school for free.

It sounds like there’s a confusion about WHICH fee waiver the GC is talking about.

I can’t imagine that a student has to retake SAT or ACT in order to use a fee waiver for college application.

I think a GC can help a low income student get about 4 fee waivers for college applications.

That said, even if she had to retake the ACT or SAT (which I don’t think she has to), the EA school would just use her current scores if those have been sent to the school.
