If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Blue Mountain, take your first SAT or ACT by spring of junior year. Use the summer before senior year and the fall for retakes if superscoring could help, with your last retake being the fall test whose scores will arrive before Blue Mountain’s Regular Decision deadline. The July 13 financial aid priority deadline does not need to drive your testing timeline.
