Rush Scores for EA?

[itsonlyme]

<p>Do I need to rush my Nov SAT scores to MIT if I’ve applied early? Will it reach them on time if I listed MIT as one of the score recipients while registering?</p>

<p>Call MIT admissions. Some schools specifically DO NOT want rushed scores. The way their system is set up, they would not get to the individual letters very quickly, which is what rushed scores are. Some schools specifically put files aside before deciding if you tell the adcom you are sending scores–I’ve seen it on their websites. So you need to know how MIT specifically wants this handled.</p>

<p>The scores will reach them on time and you do not need to rush November SATs.</p>

<p>From Matt McGann [here](<a href=“http://www.mitadmissions.org/topics/apply/deadlines/ea_deadline.shtml]here[/url]:”>http://www.mitadmissions.org/topics/apply/deadlines/ea_deadline.shtml):</a>

It is also important to note that we do not need to have your scores in our hands by the deadline. In fact, we will accept scores from this weekend’s SAT administration (Nov. 4) for Early Action. If you have taken October or November tests, don’t worry about not being able to list these scores on your Part 2. I assure you that we will receive these scores, and then will use your best scores. Also, please note that you should not rush scores to us. We will receive your scores in plenty of time to be considered for early action decisions if you send them to us via the normal method.
