When do I have to report SAT score?

I don’t think it needs to be in by the end of December, and I don’t see anywhere in the application instructions that it does. Consider this: I don’t take the SAT or the ACT when everyone else does, because I’ve been taking special testing. My scores come much later – in fact, one of my SAT 2 tests got LOST, yes, lost by collegeboard, from November. Am I going to be penalized because I didn’t take the test when everyone else did in December? I don’t think so. Will I be penalized because my exam got lost by Collegeboard? I don’t think so. If I was penalized, you can bet my parents (who both graduated from UCLA and are both lawyers) would have a real problem with this. It’s hard enough having disabilities and competing with all of you, but to get dinged because of that just isn’t right. I’ve visited most of the UCs and they come across as really trying to be sensitive to all of this.
