You should apply now with the score that you have because you need the test score in order to make your application complete. Then send them your new ACT score via the ACT website so that they will receive it as soon as it comes in. Pitt will consider all of your scores and will superscore, so you don’t have to worry about only sending your best scores.



This IS NOT true!! As soon as Pitt receives everything they need for your application (i.e. the application, SAT score, and transcript). It’s considered complete. You can try to add more to it (i.e. letters of rec, resume of activities) but trying to replace your SAT scores once the “complete package” has been forwarded to the admissions committee may not be possible. Like I said before, play it safe and wait for your new scores to come in before you submit stuff. The only thing the priority application does is give you a faster turnaround, nothing more.
