Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Urban College, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and fall of senior year for superscore-focused retakes. Urban College does not offer ED or EA, and the April 10 financial aid priority deadline should not drive your testing timeline.
