Since Oglala Lakota College is test-optional, follow this timeline only if you choose to submit SAT or ACT scores. Plan to take your first test by the spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and the fall for retakes if a higher score or superscore would help. For the December 6 Regular Decision deadline, a November SAT or October ACT retake is typically the last fall test with scores likely to arrive in time.
