Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Bushnell, take your first SAT or ACT by spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and fall of senior year for retakes to improve your superscore. Bushnell does not list Early Decision or Early Action deadlines, and its January 1 financial aid priority deadline and GPA-based scholarships do not require test scores, so confirm the Regular Decision date before counting on a late fall retake.
