SAT score

Hi,

If I have sent my SAT scores to colleges already but I don't want them to count that as a factor. Is there any way to do this?

Thank you!

I recommend reaching out the admissions office either through email or by calling. Some schools, like UNC Chapel Hill for example, are only considering self-reported scores. So, if you sent an official score report, it would not be considered regardless in that case. However, I know not all schools are operating that way. Look into the test score policies for each of your schools to see how they're accepting scores. I think if you email or call them to let them know that you don't want your scores to be considered in your admissions file, it shouldn't be too big of a problem. But of course, it definitely does depend on the school. Good luck!
