Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Sinte Gleska, take your first SAT or ACT by spring of junior year so you can use the summer before senior year for retakes and superscoring. Sinte Gleska’s Regular Decision deadline is August 24, so fall senior-year retakes will likely be too late for admission consideration.
