Forgot an ACT Score

<p>I took the ACT freshman year in order to qualify for a higher level English course during Sophomore year. I don’t even remember the composite score - the only reason I took it was for that class, and I only needed a 26 combined English/Writing score. </p>

<p>Fast forward almost three years, and I took the ACT twice more (once mandated by the state), receiving a significantly better score. When I applied to Stanford, I sent these two sets of scores, because these were the only ones I took with the intention of college applications. The one I took during Freshman year was, until now, completely forgotten. </p>

<p>What could happen, and what should I do?</p>

<p>I believe that ACT sends all of your scores and there is no “choice”… it’s all or nothing. Check on your ACT account to see what was sent.</p>

<p>I wish, that would’ve made this whole college app process much easier. CollegeBoard does that with SAT (unless you do Score Choice, which Stanford forbids for SATI) but ACT sends each score report individually. That’s why I sent the two that I did, and completely forgot about the third one from years back. </p>

<p>It sounds bad to ask it like this, but I will anyway: On the crazy, impossible chance that I got in (or even deferred), is there any way Stanford could find out about this last ACT score and automatically rescind my admission? </p>

<p>I know they require confirmation of everything on your app if you’re accepted, but since ACT doesn’t auto-send all scores, there’s <em>technically</em> no way they’d know about it, correct?</p>
