SAT scores arriving late?

I know that the deadline for most common applications is January 1st, but what about SAT scores? I haven’t sent my SAT scores to many colleges because I thought they’d take them off my transcript, but now I see that they require them to be sent from the testing agency. Collegeboard says they take 1-2 weeks to get there so they probably wouldn’t be at the college by Jan 1st. Will colleges consider my application at all? Should I get my scores rushed so they get there earlier? Thanks.
