Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional COCC, take your first SAT or ACT by spring of junior year and reserve the summer and fall for retakes that could improve your score or superscore. Since COCC does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, a fall senior-year retake is typically the last testing window likely to arrive in time for Regular Decision.
