Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit SAT or ACT scores to JCCC, take your first test by the spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and the fall for retakes. JCCC does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, so choose a fall retake that will report before your regular application deadline rather than timing tests around the April 1 financial aid priority date.
