Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional LTCC, take your first SAT or ACT by spring of junior year and save the summer before senior year and the fall of senior year for retakes. Use LTCC’s application deadline to pick the last fall retake whose scores will arrive in time, not the June 1 financial aid priority deadline.
