Take tests early for the best outcomes

Hilbert is test-optional, so follow this timeline only if you plan to submit SAT or ACT scores: take your first test by spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and fall retakes to improve your score. Because Hilbert does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, treat the fall retake as your last likely opportunity to have scores ready for Regular Decision rather than planning around the December 1 financial aid priority deadline.
