Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit scores to CCD, take your first SAT or ACT by spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and fall for retakes. CCD does not list a score-based scholarship cutoff or application deadline here, so confirm your program’s deadline and make sure any retake scores arrive before it.
