If you choose to submit scores to DeVry Online, plan to take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year. Use the summer before senior year and the fall of senior year for retakes, especially if superscoring could improve your result; because DeVry Online does not list an EA or Regular Decision deadline, confirm your program’s application timing before counting on a late fall score.
