I messed up the test reporting section of the Common App

My school attaches ACT/SAT scores as part of the transcript that the counselor submits, and I didn’t really understand the whole “self reporting” scores thing, so on the Common App where it asked if I wanted to self-report scores I said no because I thought my counselor had already done it. I applied early action to one school, and I logged onto that school’s portal and it says they have not received my ACT/SAT scores. That college takes self-reported scores, which I just thought meant the one the counselor uploaded, but I’m just now realizing I was supposed to enter my score in the Common App. Is it okay if I directly send the scores through ACT tomorrow? Will it get there in time? I’m kind of freaking out right now and would appreciate any advice. Thank you!
