Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Culver-Stockton, plan your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year and keep the summer before senior year and the fall of senior year for retakes that could improve a superscore. Because Culver-Stockton has no Early Decision or Early Action deadline and its listed scholarships are GPA-based, do not use the February 1 financial aid priority deadline as your testing target; check the Regular Decision deadline before counting on a final fall retake.
