Monroe is test-optional, so this timeline only matters if you choose to submit SAT or ACT scores. Take your first SAT or ACT by spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and fall of senior year for superscore-focused retakes; because Monroe does not offer Regular Decision and the listed merit requirement is GPA-only, confirm your application deadline before relying on a final fall retake.
