Drumgirl, D had the same problem: she hadn’t signed up to receive scores in the mail. What we did when coaches started asking for copies was to call the College Board and arrange to get the hard copies of her scores sent to us (yes, this will cost you). Those take a while to arrive. So in the meantime, she and her father went online, copied and pasted the scores and created a pdf which she then attached to emails to coaches. It was a temporary expedient and not an official report but it satisfied everyone until we got the paper copies (which we then scanned and attached to later emails).

You should of course send scores through collegeboard.com to any college you apply to, but the admissions office will see them, not the coaches. So you might try the above suggestion, again as a stopgap only, until you can attach a scan of the official score report. Also let the coaches know that you’ll be sending them the official report in due course.

Hopefully, other CC’ers have alternate, less primitive solutions to offer! But this did work for D…
