<p>I read that they’re accepting only the new SAT. Does anybody know if applicants for 2006 may submit the old SAT with SAT II Writing?</p>

<p>I don’t believe so. as far as I know, they are only accepting the new ones. </p>

<p>you can always call the admission’s office or e mail one of the advisors to find out, you know…</p>

<p>I did, and I am horribly out of luck. Woe is me</p>

4

<p>sorry to hear…</p>

<p>good luck with the new sat.</p>

<p>They also accept the ACT, my S never took the SAT.</p>

<p>OP:</p>

<p>altho UofC’s website is slightly uncommon (LOL), it is informative if you slog around it a bit. Below is the link discussing the new SAT. Good luck.</p>

<p>Actually they do accept the old SATs and the new ones. So don’t worry about it.</p>

<p>where did you receive your info? Chicago’s website clearly states in bold letters: “Current high school Juniors wishing to apply in 2005 to enter in 2006 must take the new SAT I (or ACT); we will not accept the old format of the SAT I for next year’s applicants.”</p>

<p>Unless you have a signed letter from Dean O’Neill to the contrary, I’d follow their published policy and take the new SAT (or ACT); the writing portion of the ACT is not required.</p>

<p>hey blue</p>

<p>I actually didnt know the Chicago website stated that. But I know that most schools take both. But I think that if you talk to the dean it should be no problem. Because for students graduating in 2006 i remember them telling the juniors that they are allowed to take the old SATs. Sorry for the misunderstanding.</p>
