Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Springfield College, plan for a first SAT or ACT by spring of junior year, then use summer before senior year and fall of senior year for retakes and possible superscore gains. For the December 1 Early Decision deadline, an October retake is the safest last fall test date likely to arrive in time.
