Because Moravian is test-optional, follow this testing timeline only if you plan to submit SAT or ACT scores. Take your first test by the spring of junior year, then reserve the summer before senior year and the fall for retakes and possible superscoring. For the November 15 Early Action deadline, an October SAT or ACT is typically the last fall retake whose scores can arrive in time.
