Institute of Technology SAT Scores, ACT Scores, Acceptance Rate, and Admissions Requirements

If you choose to submit scores to IOT, take your first SAT or ACT by spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and fall of senior year for retakes to improve your superscore. Since IOT does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, plan around its Regular Decision deadline and treat the last fall test date that reports before that deadline as your final usable retake.
