SAT vs ACT vs New SAT

valid_2-512

If I take the “old” SAT how long will my score be valid?

What if I take the exam before March 2016 but don’t apply until 2016, 2017, or 2018?

Current Senior Class Graduating 2016: ALL colleges will accept the SAT results from pre March 2016 exams (the “old” exam).

Current Junior Class Graduating 2017: ALL colleges will accept the SAT results from pre March 2016 exams (the “old” exam).

Current Sophomore Class Graduating 2018: You should check with the admissions office of your college to see whether they will accept pre March 2016 SAT exam results—some will and some won’t.

For the next two years—a pre March 2016 SAT exam will be accepted for all applications in 2016 and 2017 and some/most in 2018.
