Take tests early for the best outcomes

Fresno City is test-optional, so use this timeline only if you choose to submit SAT or ACT scores. Take your first test by the spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and a fall retake for superscoring opportunities before the last test date that can still send scores by Fresno City’s regular admission deadline.
