<p>How do colleges link the scores they receive with their applications? </p>
<p>I sent my scores to 4 colleges last month and expect to be applying in mid-September. Does the application ask for information to link your SAT scores to your app, or does the college somehow match scores on their own?</p>

<p>From what I know, as soon as you start submitting information to them such as test scores, the college will create a file(maybe virtual or physical, or both) of you, and when they receive more information, they keep adding to that file. As long as you provide the proper information with each piece that you send, such as your correct name and stuff, they should be able to put it together correctly.</p>
<p>Thanks, that makes sense.</p>
<p>Is there a way to confirm that my test scores have been received once an application has been started (or finished)?</p>
<p>I don’t have actual experience with that, but I would assume you’d be able to call them and provide necessary details to confirm you’re the same person that sent those scores, and they’d be able to tell you.</p>
