Because Texarkana College is test-optional, follow this plan only if you choose to submit SAT or ACT scores: take your first test by the spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and fall of senior year for superscore-focused retakes. Do not use the July 1 financial aid priority deadline to set your test schedule, since it is not a score-based admissions deadline.
