Hey, I need to check my SAT scores from a few years ago but I'm not sure how to obtain those. Can someone explain the process to get my SAT scores? Thanks a bunch!
Sure, I'd be happy to help! To obtain your old SAT scores, you'll need to log in to your College Board account. If you don't have an account or can't remember the login information, you can create a new account or follow the "Forgot username/password" prompts on the login page.
Once you're logged in, you'll see a tab for "My SAT." Click on it, and you'll be directed to a page with your scores. The page will display any SAT scores you have from the past, typically going back around 15 years. If you took the test more recently, you should be able to access your scores right away.
If your scores are older than that, or you can't find them in your College Board account, you'll need to request archived scores. To do this, you'll need to fill out the "Archived Score Report Order Form" on the College Board website. There will be a fee for retrieving the archived scores, which is currently $31 per report, plus an additional $12 for each report sent to a college, university, or scholarship program.
Allow a few weeks for processing, as the archived scores take longer to retrieve than more recent ones. Once the process is complete, your SAT scores will be sent to either your address or directly to the institution(s) you've specified.
I hope this information helps you obtain your old SAT scores! Good luck!
