SAT/ACT Scores?

@sebtaylor2, you could send everything but your ACT scores now. That’s what my son did last year, knowing that he was going to re-take the SAT one last time in October 2013. He submitted his application in late September and had all of his SAT scores sent to Pitt after the October test date. Pitt held his application until they received the scores and returned an admission decision shortly thereafter. I told him to wait and submit everything together but he did it his way and it worked out.

November is not too late to be considered for the Honors College or scholarships.

I agree with @AwesomeOpossum that someone from admissions is not going to burst into the committee meeting and yell “Stop the presses! We just received an updated score for StudentXYZ!!!” When your file is complete, it will be reviewed as soon as possible. There’s a thread in this forum about a student who applied early with (self-described) low grades and test scores and was denied acceptance. Don’t let that happen to you just for the sake of meeting the Priority Application deadline.
