Sending SAT scores

I know this question has been asked a lot, but I am still quite frankly confused about the appropriate time to send them. I am sending them to Cal States and UC’s.

I know that the deadline for college apps for Cal states and Uc’s is November 30th, but I just submitted my applications and everything on the 27th. Anyhow, right after I submitted my apps, I went right away to submit my SAT scores, and I know that they are pending as of now. I heard they take 1-2 weeks (?) to get to the Cal States and Uc’s, so my primary concern is that Cal states and UC’s will receive my application, but my SAT scores obviously will not be available to them by Nov. 30th.

Did I go wrong, or do Cal states and UC’s wait until these two up are together and look at them within a certain time frame? Say, both need to be in to them by December 30th (to accommodate Dec. testing), or whatever.

I did not send my SAT scores any earlier than I did because I retook the test in November (first test in May, but unsatisfied) and I wanted to see my Nov. scores before I send them in. Scores came out on Nov. 21th, but I was still not done with my applications until just yesterday (procrastination). Any help or feedback is greatly appreciated. Also, Happy Thanksgiving and early Merry Christmas to you! =D
