Since SUNY Orange is test-optional, follow this timeline only if you choose to submit scores: take your first SAT or ACT by spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and the fall for retakes and possible superscoring. SUNY Orange does not list an early admission deadline here, so check your application deadline and choose the latest fall retake whose scores will arrive before that date.
