Take tests early for the best outcomes

Because Coastal Alabama is test-optional, follow this plan only if you choose to submit scores: take your first SAT or ACT by spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and fall for retakes. Since Coastal Alabama does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, plan your final fall retake around its regular admission deadline so scores arrive in time.
