If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Kuyper, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and the fall of senior year for superscore-friendly retakes. Kuyper does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, so your last fall retake should be the final SAT or ACT whose scores will arrive before the Regular Decision deadline, not the March 1 financial aid priority deadline.
