Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit SAT or ACT scores to test-optional Lane, plan for your first sitting by the spring of junior year and keep the summer before senior year plus fall of senior year for retakes or superscoring chances. Since Lane’s Regular Decision deadline is July 1, the December test should still have scores back in time.
